Long Lost lovebeautiful Poems

The Letter

He told me he’d love me forever;
He told me we’d never part.
And I believed he would never
Take a knife and tear out my heart.

He told me we’d never part.
Yesterday I found the letter;
Take a knife and tear out my heart,
He said my love was a fetter.

Yesterday I found the letter;
I know he loves somebody new.
He said my love was a fetter;
He said he’d no longer be true.

I know he loves somebody new;
He wrote with such passionate grace.
He said he’d no longer be true;
He wrote of her beautiful face.

He wrote with such passionate grace.
And I believed he would never.
He wrote of her beautiful face;
He told me he'd love me forever.
