Drew Away

Once upon a time,
I might have been yours, and you mine.

Don't think anyone would ever say so.
But we expected everyone to know.

But you drew away from me.
You had something I couldn't see.

Something you were ashamed of.
Violet, such things don't matter in love.

But, I cannot force you back.
I just know no cheer when it's you I lack.

Violet, you know I'm forever true.
Forget the past, I'm in love with you.
