nothing left to break
A single word that's gently spoken
Leaves desolation in its wake

A long goodbye is longer still
When its final and complete
The softest kiss upon her lips
Never bitter, but always sweet

A memory that fills the soul
And brings life where none has been
A true love that had to go
For sacrifices seldom seen

In all the battles that we fought
And victories that were shared
With friends of hers that became mine
People for whom I cared

And if I was to question all
To ponder what was lost
I know I should want to return
For I cannot meet the cost
