For Ellina.

I left you in the school,

The barren brick walls surrounding you.

I left you in the spring,

The melting snow mocking your tears

I left you, and I lost you.

I did not see your heart on your sleeve,

Marking out your place.

I did not see as you placed that heart in my hands,

Giving me your happiness.

"I did not see"? No, I ignored.

I chose not to see you there.

And now I am gone.

And you have but one friend, and I have none.

I tore your heart from your sleeve,

I took your soul from your chest.

And now that I am gone, I am lost.

(Sincerely, your lover.)
