Aftermath

My lover's gone,

Left me sad and forlorn.

My lover's gone,

Need to get up and move on.

My lover's gone,

Friends don't get why I'm still torn.

My lover's gone,

Taking the time to grieve and mourn.

My lover's gone,

Hurt to face so much cold scorn.

My lover's gone,

The pain has raged but has not won.

My lover's gone,

The night's been long, now comes the dawn.

My lover's gone,

It's for the best.

I know I can be happy with someone else.
