You’ve been fading ever since June
Darling, when my heart is torn in two
I fall in love with each pas de deux
Forever you shall be my muse
But your disappearance is still unexcused
O professor do you really do?
I pledge unfailing love to no one but you.
Split away from my love again
Separated by death but united by pen
Childhood memories like a tide
I remember when you were mine
Past love faded, whose to blame?
But just look at what we became
Yours truly with every breath
I sign this letter Grace Elizabeth

You’ve been fading ever since June[losing interst in me]
Darling, when my heart is torn in two[in love with two people]
I fall in love with each pas de deux[a pas de duex is a dance for two in french. in ballet you dance with a boy. it is often very sexual. and i fall in love with like every partner]
Forever you shall be my muse[my pas partner always inspires me. my muse.]
But your disappearance is still unexcused[but boys apparently dont feel the connection when we dance as one]
O professor do you really do?[ do you really do love me]
I pledge unfailing love to no one but you.[i hope you understand that.]
Split away from my love again[he died]
Separated by death but united by pen[he taught me so much. my knowledge reminds me of him]
Childhood memories like a tide[childhood memories always come back. washing over me like a tide.]
I remember when you were mine [duh]
Past love faded, whose to blame?[we both grew apart]
But just look at what we became [we are so differant now]
Yours truly with every breath[always will remember you]
I sign this letter Grace Elizabeth[my name.]

Beautiful piece of work, and I'm impressed one two different notes. First the piece itself flowed good and was written well. Your thoughts didn't seem to me to be scattered and I understood it. Second your explanation in the authors notes gave me quite a laugh so this was a double bonus piece. Thanks for entering.
