Please Leave Her

Oh, I wish you would leave her.
I love you so. 
Her power much more powerful 
than mine.
If she calls to you
like a servant ... you go.

The days are so long 
the nights unbearable.
How could you want her more 
than me?

Holding on to the last tear
I look at the moon,
wanting you near...
I whisper your name 
it is carried away in the wind...

If only....
you would leave her....
How can this be
I cannot compete
with the sea....
