Gone With Love

Gone, and gone with love! Up forlornly went my breath Down my body sank, of death I but recall, in love with you intensely how I fell And evermore was I there while you were unwell I broke jokes to you to keep you calm And I took care of you when you broke your arm I waited for you to admit that you love me And to assure me that we would soon together be I waited for you to discard your pride and take part But I doubted that your love resided in a confused heart And so long I cared for you till my love did decay As I loved you in vain till the sun came and took me away! Pity when I was gone I learnt that you loved me too And that it was belated of time that I then be with you Because now I’m gone, and with true love I’m gone!
