At last in peace

I watched you leave 8 years ago
you said it was goodbye.
I did my very best to show
a smile and not to cry.

My world was torn apart in two,
I lost all love for life.
On that porch right there I knew
you'd no longer be my wife.

All our dreamy-dreams,
Shattered into the wind.
It's only now it seems,
That I wish my love would end.

For I still hold your heart,
Inside mine each lonesome day.
But now that we're apart,
There's things I wish to say.

I wish to say I loved you,
Through good times and the bad.
We should have talked it through,
Instead of growing mad.

But things are as they are,
Our live's no longer one,
My memory you still shun...
A new life you've begun.

So I plce this lonely ribbon,
Of our heart's representation:
On a gravestone of love riven,
And my hope's disintegration.

Very touching, with the twist at the end, made it incredible.
