Once, we loved so hard
no one could pull us apart
You were my protector
my strong and sturdy wall
with you, I always knew
I would never fall
Years passed and you seem to forget
the time and effort we put into this
my heart has been betrayed
for another woman's kiss
Broken hearted, I am
now that my dreams have been diluted
the pure love we once shared
is now soiled and polluted
You didn't try to resist her attraction
just gave in to the youth
she used as a distraction
I'll let you go now,
go on and be free
one day I'll gain back the trust
your leaving has taken from me

In your closing stanza "...one day I'll gain back the trust your leaving has taken from me," it is a given that the trust will be not with "the pure love" you once knew but only with another; and, even then, the experience of a prior lover's trust-breaking will be a haunting memory.
"Sullied Memories" speaks with profound insight.
Well done, Denise. Well done!

How I wish he hadn't hurt you by being selfish, weak and unkind. Your heart is much stronger and more beautiful than his, leaving you is sure to be HIS MISS.
Stay strong sweet lady, Stuart from a distant land
Peace, love, and light,
