For if to me her love belonged <br />I'd sing for joy this day, <br />And yet I know what're I try <br />It cannot be this way, <br />For now I have to spend my life <br />Admiring from afar, <br />But still my love shall never fade <br />And shine like yonder star. <br /> <br />Please pity me o God above <br />And spare me of this woe, <br />For her and I were meant to be <br />And yet it is not so, <br />For fate has been so harsh and cruel <br />And torn my life apart, <br />It cast my dreams like autumn leaves <br />And broke my loving heart. <br /> <br />What waits for me I do not know <br />Tomorrow could reveal, <br />The birth of spring and better times <br />For then my wounds may heal, <br />While winter bites its bitter cold <br />Shall chill me to the bone, <br />For every time I think of her <br />Reminds me I'm alone.<br /><br />ANDREW BLAKEMORE<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/for-if-to-me-her-love-belonged/
