Over You

with a bracing jolt, from my heart I pulled out the poisoned spear
though I felt with it departed all the memories I once held so dear
blood still dripping from the wound caused by your deadly sword
my walk sublime for I endured, you lied - but I still have my word

looking back, you or me, there is no telling who was to blame
for all that matters is that once bright, there burned a flame
too often you made me cry, now lost is the warmth of my smile
once I wished we had loved forever, though now glad it was only awhile

little by little I have learned to live without the comfort of your touch
day by day I forget all those magic moments that once meant so much
with the years I will disguise my feelings, laughter and pain, all just the same
and by the end of time, perhaps I won't remember your face - or even your name
