Oh, darling, all that we once cherished
Now drifts in sorrowed song—
The words I once dared speak to thee,
Are cast, like wreckage, long.
Promises, pale and hollow,
Lie scattered on the shore;
Each vow, a fading shadow,
Each hope, forevermore.
And though I yearned to linger,
Clasped tight in memory’s keep,
My heart, that once burned so brightly,
In silence, learned to sleep.
