It's a little hard you see
to hide these things I want
you to see
I cannot show you
no matter
how I would want to
our ways got separated
you went that way
I the other
Nothing can bind us now
not my love
neither yours
for your heart
belongs to someone else
and it's hers alone
I respected your choice
though it was not easy
for me
to carry on
without your love
But once I'm gone
I shall not bother you any longer.
you will live
I'll leave
on a journey
past our view
and once I'm no longer here
to hold your hand
I won't be sad
because I won't see the love
the love you didn't have for me.
To Marius,
Farewell,
Eponine.
