Forever mine

The first time they met
On a sunny spring morn
He’d never forget
The smile that she’d worn

The years that followed
Were full of bliss
Or so he’d thought
Until he realised something was amiss

The late nights
The trips away
The silly fights
Could only mean she was going astray

What had gone wrong
He’d never really know
How could a love so strong
Break as easy as a withered bough

If he could not have her
No one would
He’d tried his best to please her
And yet, was sorely misunderstood

As he watched the darkened river
Down his spine
Ran a little shiver
And the thought “Now forever, you’re mine”
