The return

When she returns to you
And takes her rightful place,
Her coming will undo me
Is this something I can face?

Must I stand witness
To the joy burning in your eyes
My heart will be destroyed
The moment she arrives?

Will I be able to endure
And  bear the dull suspense
As she  again regains your heart
But remains uncertain on the fence?

Shall I stand  in  the shadows
Just beyond the gate
Shattered on the  inside
Left wondering at my fate?

Do I possess the will
Can I be that strong
To untie my heartstrings
No longer to belong?

When you lay my  tender heart
To the ground , there at my  feet
Will all the cherished memories
Become sad and bittersweet?

Can I survive this tragic loss?
Will my  broken heart  ever mend?
How will I continue to live a life
Bereft of my most treasured  friend?
