Would That I Had Turned
=========================
Though of my love you knew,
you did not treat it well
and cared not what befell
my soul for love of you
But careless as you grew,
the harder still I fell...
Oh, would that I had turned
away right at the start,
perhaps then to depart
with just a lesson learned
But desperation burned!
Scorched holes into my heart
Now, with this torch I'll lie
and love you till I die
