Neglect has torn her world apart. 

He tended not the fading light 
So self absorbed he became 
No longer two as one 
Extinguishing the flame 

Sorrow was her own sentiment. 

Toiling in vain to make it his right 
He told her this was his to do 
And hers to feel... 
Is the sadness not his too? 

Her tears were for that which was lost. 

For what was cast far out of sight 
In betrayal of what she believed 
Her loyalty redundant 
Once 'greener grass' perceived.
