Minstrels lament
Hey there girl I miss you dearly,
And I mean that quite sincerly,
I've very nearly lost my mind,
Not having you by my side,
They say that time heals all wounds,
But I will never be over you,
Whenever life depresses me,
I drift of to your memory,
Remembering the times we shared,
Hoping that you truly cared,
As much as I still care for you,
Despite doing what we had to do,
I realize now we're truly through,
I just read another letter from you,
You're talking about this other dude,
And how he says your special too,
I knew one day that I would lose,
My bruised heart, all black and blue,
Has just been ripped and torn in two,
Guess there's nothing I can do,
There'll be others like him too,
I hope they die before I do,
I hope when they breathe their last breath,
I am there to watch their death!,
Thats my broken heart doing its best,
To try and escape this aching chest,
I still wish you the best in life and love,
May happiness follow wherever you go,
I want you to know,
I still dream of you at night,
Your always there when I close my eyes,
If everyone on this earth was to die,
Everything would be fine,
With you by my side,
Its like I have died,
Now that you left me,
All I have are these memories,
These horrible things that scream your name,
I wish that they would go away,
And my poor broken heart,
Will stay where it's at,
So it cannot be attacked,
Alone and scared Ill play along,
Till the blessed day Im gone,
Just know I dont want to go on,
Still I know I must go on,
Till the game is lost or won,
Till the day that I am done...

So sad. I still remember the chest pain
from a broken heart at eighteen.
Give it 30 years..you'll be fine!
Hope she reads it !!!
