All I Had.

 

  The man you loved,

may have been a knave,

but my love was all I had,

my love was all I gave.

In life, I feared more than death,

standing alive at your grave,

I take no breath free of the thought,

Of the path we could have paved

They say distance brings men closer,

All you did was drift further away,

Why I let you out of my sight,

I do not know, nor would I ever say. 

The man you loved,

may have been a knave,

but my love was all I had,

my love was all I gave.
