I lost a love today

I lost a love today,
one so faithful, loyal and true, 
but for the one 
she could not resist.

When I needed her the most,
when I needed her to hold,
she was nowhere to be found.

I looked high
and 
I looked low,
my looking all in vein

til the time it came and went.

My search brought me
round the world,
til journeys end,
when I found 
the place she was.

By his side once more,
as so many times before.

And love her as I do,
I just must let her go,
with the freedom
to chase her dreams,
that I know now not I am.

My heart weeps of sadness and the pain.
