What fault in me could turn your heart to stone? 

    What flaw so great could make you walk away? 

    I gave you all I had, and still alone, 

    I wander through this long and loveless grey. 

    Did you not see the tears I tried to hide, 

    The battles fought to earn your gentle gaze? 

    Or were my efforts lost, cast off, denied, 

    A fleeting spark within your fleeting phase?

    I ask myself these questions every night, 

    A chorus sung by shadows in my mind. 

    Yet though I ache, I hope to see the light, 

    To find within your heart a love resigned. 

    If love remains, then let me be your guide, 

    To mend what broke and stand by love’s great tide.
