After all's been said and done, After wrong you've caused and said. You will go away - I'll stay behind, We have nothing else to say.
After all's been said and done, And the truth has surfaced thus, You're not brave enough to say good-bye, But there's nothing else to say.
After all's been said and done, Broken heart can't be remade. Nothing's left of all good love of ours, Of those things we've left unsaid.
After all's been said and done Only smile is left of pain. Sadness thus invades my broken heart, This is all I have to say.
After all's been said and done Love is gone - see empty space. Our love is gone for good, alas, What is there for us to say?! There is nothing else to say.

About this poem:
Things happen and we must accept the loss and live on hopeful of better news!
--Terrific write Marikia!!!So wonderful poem and I love its style too. Every first line starts as the same sentence... It's nice. --- After all's been said and done----there's nothing else left to say!! I can feel the pain and sadness!! I love the following lines the most:
After all's been said and done, And the truth has surfaced thus, You're not brave enough to say good-bye, But there's nothing else to say.
--it's complicated things when we have to let go something we used to keep it forever.. --------------------------------------
You're so cute, dear, I love your comments very much. And they are always to the point. You should be a very nice young lady, in addition to being so beautiful. Thank you.
Melody and melancholy wraps it up very well. Remember often change is good.

The opening stanza said all what I imagine we have all felt at sometime in life....well worded Marikia......you set the stage early and then confirmed the journey travelled. The relationship that caused me so much pain, was giving three adults so much fun yesterday...sun at the end of a dark period. Glad I can smile...it's the only way, else we could turn bitter and learn nothing. Niah
