[ WP ] A punchdrunk lovesick lullaby

I followed you into the dark. 
 
 We carved our names into the bark. 
 
 `` Forever and always 
 
 Through short nights and through long days.'' 
 
 ___ 
 
 But that tree withered so long 
 
 Its voice died in sweet silent song. 
 
 Dead and gone 
 
 We left and lost our life bond. 
 
 ___ 
 
 I always remember your words 
 
 Of comfort and joy like the birds. 
 
 Sweet and sad; 
 
 It was all I never had. 
 
 ___ 
 
 For I carved both names on that tree 
 
 No kind woman would be with me. 
 
 No more hope; 
 
 You and me, the end of a rope 
 
 ___ 
 
 You were not ever real and I know that now. 
 
 `` Always to love you'', I end with that vow.
