Evermore

Evermore was all I ever wanted.
All I ever wanted was you forever more.
But you insisted, “Less is more.”
Less is, more or less, all you ever gave me.
And all you ever gave me left me cold forever more.

Hmmm...this would make a good postscript on Marriage Dissolution papers, Michael. Good one!
