Analysis of The Death of the Ex
Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)
The Death of the Ex,
For our Love has died,
The Feeling of Pain,
That I endure Inside.
The Death of the Ex
My Dear Love is Gone,
He didn't Die "No"
He decided to Move On.
Inside my Soul
Inside I am Grieving
My Heart is Broken
Because of you Leaving
I thought that it would work
I thought that you would stay
But you still decided
To leave me anyway
FAREWELL my Love!!!
For our Love has gone Astray!!!
