I  know  I’ve  lost  you

But  losing  you

To  this  extent,

That  was  devastating

I  felt  you  were  leaving

But  going

So  far  away,

That  was heart–rending

I sensed  you  have  changed,

But  so  drastically,

That’s  beyond  rational  thinking

I  liked  you  with  my  eyes

Loved  you  with  my  heart,

Traded  you  with  my  mind,

Now  I  am  bankrupt,

Having  lost  everything.
