Lines For a Past Lover

From day 'til dusk, I dreamt my mind away For she was all that I could think about Emotions stirred that I could not shut out Endearing thoughts that kept my woes at bay And soon, as spring had sprung, we'd run and play Long days, with picnics planned in summer's drought Leaves changed and fell, I left for my own route Then winter came. A gift to my dismay I did not care, the miles between us two Except she cared that I had not been near No longer did her love stay strong and true Gone now, she left and made her point all clear Reflecting on events from this past year Still cannot seem to mend a broken heart
