You used to write me

into the melody and said,

"Darling, you're my muse."

I guess, it did not occur to me

that things ended

the way that it did.

I'm certain that you'd come around

but I wished that I'd listen

to all the warning signs

that Frank had laid out for me.

I didn’t

because I love you so much

that it pains me

to see you happy

with her,

with Elizabeth.

I remember that you used to write me

into a melody that said,

“Darling, you’re my forever”

and I believed it.
