Nothing Can Mend

Once we were lovers, that’s in the past
The root of your obsession just didn’t last
What was separated has come to an end
But what was broken nothing can mend
We may ponder the choices not taken
But nothing remains that isn’t forsaken
Time has been cruel, as vast as the sea
Distance a darkness which I’m not free
Though I may still find you in my sleep
You were never mine to have and to keep.
