She's On To Another

She once filled my nights
	With her dreams felt so real
Her face, it was light
	My heart, she did steal
She’s now a dream for another
	As her words, they do show
A pain like no other
	For this cancer now grows
Such a foolish belief
	To have thought more of her
I now sit in grief
	As my heart, it does stir

I relinquish my feelings
	I cast them aside
For she truly was stealing
	All I could never hide
She has moved to another
	His heart she will use
I pray for you brother
	To not be abused
