BROKEN HEART

You tell me - you think 'yours' is worse but its not,
perhaps you should reconsider your position, you forgot
that there are people worse off than you but still
you keep writing, slow down, but you never will.

My girlfriend went to London, training as a nurse,
I missed her while she was away, it was worse
as time went on but I managed to keep going,
you get paranoid, start to wonder what you're doing.

One day I visited her mother who invited me in,
she didn't look her usual self, I wondered where to begin, 
she said that: 'You'd better sit down,' quickened my pulse,
'I'm sorry to tell you that Tricia has married someone else'.

It was not possible, such a thing could not happen,
next time you want me to be sad for you, think of my position.
