How insensitive

I must have seemed

when he told me

that he loved me.

How unmoved and cold

I must have seemed

when he said it

so sincerely.



Why, he must have asked

did I just turn and

stare in icy silence?

What was I to do?

What can you do?

when a love affair is over?



Now he's gone away

and I'm alone with

the memory of

his last look.

Vague and drawn

and sad, I see it still

All the heartbreak

of his last look.



Why, he must have asked

would I just turn

and stare in icy silence?

What was I to say?

What can you say?

when a love affair is over?



Why, he must have asked

did I just turn

and stare in icy silence?

What was I to say?

What can you say?

when a love affair is over?

over
