What tares like a passion

Can drift; can lift two people apart.

Who good heart

But not meant to be.

I know you are over me

But where does that

Leave me?

Apportioning no blame

The shame is mine.

But since we were wed

I stayed calm.

This was not easy,

And the charms of life

I gave were bled

The same.

No questions asked,

No answer required.

I see the birds have fled.

Going to sunnier climbs

Instead.
