Forever and a day, the world and his wife cried.
The apple of my eye died.
I chose to forget you
Because it was all I could do to remember
Even the memories of December-
You proposed and you cried.
I cried too.
I cried for you.
Some things we never do disclose to our dearest,
Nor our nearest.
A selfless good deed don't they call it?
So selfless that it's here for all eyes to see.
I'd rather your eyes saw me.
