Wreath

This is the wreath I gave to her
A symbol, I hoped, of our future
With it I pledged my love to her
But that night she went away
That was the wreath he gave to me
The sign of a future that can never be
With it he gave his heart to be
But I had to go away


This is the wreath I placed by her bead
A message of all that we'd left unsaid
I found it again, left on her bed
The night that she went away
That was the wreath he left me to find
in hope that to him, me he would bind
I longed to accept, but left it behind
When I had to go away


The wreath is a circle, a cycle unending
A meeting, a linking, a joining, a binding
Tying our hearstrings together forever
Though I must go...
Though she must go...
[both] Though I/she must go away
