Moving On

We had been together for many a year,
Now, all I could feel was fear.
I gave all that I could give,
It just wasn't the way she wanted to live.

She left without a backward glance,
Not even giving my love a chance.
I often wonder what I could have done,
To keep her from going on the run.

Now I am all alone,
With nothing to call my own.
I can barely make myself eat,
Wondering if my life will ever again be complete.

Now I am moving along,
Building my courage, and becoming strong.
Time will heel my broken pride,
Toward the sunset my heart will glide.
