Death At Her Departure

My lover's leaving;
My heart's breaking,
Now I'm grieving,
And I'm aching.

I'm to weak,
I should be bolder.
I should stop her,
And should hold her.

And tell her now,
If she believes me,
I will die,
If she soon leaves me.

But I can't,
Her heart is froze,
So I watch her,
As she goes.

Now she's left,
But I did try:
My lover's gone,
So now I die.
