The seasons change as years go by,
as, my friend, have you and I.
The summers pass, the winters fade,
and so end the bonds we've made.
A warming spring had budded new hope,
from which frost melted; and I could cope.
But a blistering summer wilted what grew,
and parched the bountiful love I knew.
Autumn arrived, with a swift, harsh chill,
and rendered our ties brittle, cold and weak-willed.
And finally, winter caused frost-bitten notions,
until all that was left was numb, dead emotions.
It's over for us, but I do not regret.
And it would be a pity to your memory for me to forget.
And although it has ended, and it cannot mend,
remember that spring will come again.
