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!
