My efforts not to forget you will pay off one day,

and the happiness you took with you will come back

as I would discover it never left,

but always kept me company.

The happiness you took with you will come back.

You'll realize it late. You'll wish you would have

always kept me company,

and embrace my pierced heart.

You'll realize it late. You'll wish you would have

thought about the thousand needles pierced

and not embrace my heart.

My efforts not to forget you paid off today.

Pantoum.
