The Last Embrace

Your loving arms embraced me so sweetly I thought you sincere,
Your sentiments of true love were proclaimed together with tears.
We promised each other loving friendship, lasting a hundred years
But from that moment, I have heard nothing; to face me, have you fears?
 
You said farewell, my darling, vowing soon to call,
But from you, I’ve had only quietness, a stillness that is all.
We had together amazing times that I will always treasure.
If it makes you feel better, throw at me now what you will, even nothing, in full measure.
 
I find it hard to close the door on promises that at the time meant all.
How strange that sentiments sincerely said, that after time, mean naught.
