Scars and Chains

I bear the scars of your flight,

The hurried departure from my life:

Never gave me a chance for good-bye,

On that accursed night.

I never wanted to see your pain,

Or your listless tears.

You never gave me a second chance,

A chance to cut your chains.

I found your fiery rage,

Never having wished to yield,

But I never knew your heart;

Never knew you planned this exchange.
