It sat there between them,
Unspoken misery.
Her answer was given,
Ending all of their history.
Worn out from the hurt
Her heart never healing.
So tired and bowed under,
No strength for appealing.
She stood up and left;
Drew close to the door.
His hand stretched towards her
To try just once more.
She paused and stood looking.
His heart betrayed him with hope.
She whispered so quietly
"You will learn how to cope."
To cope without me,
To cope without song,
To cope on your own strength.
Where did we go wrong?
I loved you my darling
I love you still,
But for living like this
I have lost the will.
So find your own road;
Find a place you can be.
And down the road maybe,
Well, who knows what will be?
