Leaving

Let me tell you a story
 of how we each were our quarry. 
The tale no one wants to hear,
  lying hearts expressed with a false tear. 
See yourself in pondering, wonder how it came down to this. 
 when yesterday, you loved me and today you left without a kiss.
Life goes on but the hurt remains 
  in my sadness, there is nothing left to gain.
How could you leave me this way,
  packed your things and go away?
You'd think that the trials and tribulations over time, 
  the laughter and the tears we shed, 
  would have bonded us forever in our prime 
  but now, no longer comforted in our bed.
Have you meet another,
  found and discovered some new lover,
  more intense than I could give   
  or simply parted with separate ways to live.
Come back to me again, 
 we can be as we were then.
I love you, I always will
 tell me that you love me still.
