With trembling lips, she said goodbye <br />left me alone to cry <br />the old north wind blew at the door <br />to chill my heart for evermore. <br />She’s gone away I know not where <br />turned her back on a heart that cared. <br /> <br />She’s gone away left me alone <br />now this old house is no longer a home <br />there is no laughter here anymore <br />there is no warmth like before. <br />The old north wind chills everything <br />and yesterday I found the ring <br />the little band of gold she wore <br />discarded just outside the door <br /> <br /> <br />Date unknown<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/early-works-she-s-gone-away/
