so this is the end, goodbye
had it been a waste?
we cant say we didnt try
i can't say for sure we did

we skipped together with such lightness and bouyancy
but the magic just dissipated with the wind

was it our misgiving
that caused us to part?
negligence?
time played no part
not even to redress our differences

my heart is weary, my dear

our time was scanted
constant demands
of the world
i was afraid

my tears are filled to the brim
making the weight heavier
but still i'm smiling
