Loneliness
Were those not the eyes that once looked upon me?
Were they not the lips that whispered sweet promises to me?
Were those not the arms that once comforted me?
Weren’t or are you the same soul that loved me?
Oh! But time and chance do pass,
Soon down memories and love once was,
You say you love me, then why abuse me?
Why steal the only strength our unity relys upon?
Awaken do not cheat upon a heart that loved thee so
