Lost Friendship

I think so often of our past,
Of how much time had drawn us near;
I would have never thought I’d hear
That our close friendship would not last.

The dreary autumn rain was falling
That fateful day, when we first met.
Who would have known your heart was set
To disobey my strongest calling?

We were each other’s secret then;
To us, the world was dead and hollow.
And there was never any sorrow,
Nor any sign it would all end.

So many years have since elapsed! 
You are now happy with another,
But I still won’t forget, but rather
Recall the beauty of our past.
