Lost Love

The world was simpler then
Why can't decisions stand fast
Immutable,                                                                                                                      Are there only ten commandments?                                                                                Oh, I wish I had never done it,
Or not, how to avoid this tug of war
But then everything was simpler 
Singing "She love me"
"She loves me not"
"Red rover, red rover"
Let my love come over
Where is my love?
My long lost love
My long lost precious love
The day's move from morning to dusk
And the seasons color changes
But not my long lost love
Lost by a stroke of the pen
Lost in the shades of time
