PARTING

PARTING


My love, you have decided
To part, I won’t force you
To stay against your will but
I send this message through:

Ere you go please do return
Those moments that we had
Spent in each other’s arms when
We were in love so mad.

Ere you go please do return
Those nights by the lakeside
When we dreamed a hundred dreams
Of you being my bride.

Ere you go please do return
Those tears that we had shed
When, away from each other,
We tossed alone in bed.

Ere you go please do return
Those letters that I wrote,
Pouring out my heart about
The love that bled us both.
