Conclusion to a boy and a girl

by Bethan   Jan 25, 2006


So the boy and the girl parted,
The girl went on to perform great feats,
But she never forgot her first love,
and for him her heart still beats,

The boy however couldn't take anymore,
He waited till his family were away,
then hung himself from the light fitting,
He was found like that the next day.

After this incident the girl broke down,
and felt guilty for many years,
If she'd just stayed with him,
Wouldn't he still be here?

He left her a note,
the note simply said,
I love you,
But without you, I'm better off dead.'

So, the girl cried and mourned her loss,
And five years later she was wed,
She was happy but sometimes she'd think of her boy,
and her heart was filled with dread,

For although she'd loved him completely,
and knew he didn't love her as much,
She longed for a second chance,
For it was her heart his love had touched.
