Emotional Bankruptcy
Softly, oh so softly, she whispers his name.
She misses him now that he is just an old flame.
The choice was his and her heart was broken,
Even though not a single harsh word was spoken.
His wishes she honored, she set him free.
That he never loved her was plain for her to see.
Everyone thought that they were the perfect pair.
No one knew that her love he did not share.
A shattered heart was her prize for the love she gave.
She thought he would love her, his heart she could save.
Emotional bankruptcy is the condition of his heart.
Afraid to love because he is afraid to be torn part.
She had given him all of her love so pure and true.
Loving her would have been the easiest thing he could do.
