He Could No Longer Deny

The day we first met he melted my heart He held me so close we were never to part Weeks and months past as our love grew strong In each others arms is where we belong Then came the night he never came home I sat up and waited my mind so in roam Eventually he appeared and found me in tears But I knew in my heart my internal fears We sat down and talked as he told me why That he no longer loved me he could no longer deny This girl he's been seeing is half my age My internal fears grew to external rage The day we first met he melted my heart Never again will he hold me as I watched him depart
