The One She Lost

She once met someone who gave her feelings like no other
Someone she never felt she bothered
Sadly though as all things golden, it wasn't meant to last
Her love was torn from her much too fast
She once thought herself in love
So devoted was she that she sacrificed her life and paid the toll
She waited weeks, months, years
She waited her whole life
"It will be sooner than you think"
They all told her and watched as year after year her face began to slowly sink,
She waited and wilted
Waiting for a love she could never hold,
Waiting for a child to call her own
