Analysis of Forgotten Love Letter
If this letter ever reaches you
Which I doubt it will
I only ask you read
I won't ask for your heart to be still
Although our love died long ago
My heart will not forget its woe
I bend it to my will in day
But,alas, at night it can't be swayed
Sweet dreams my love
Come out to play
But hide themselves in the brandnew day
Fear not my beloved
I'll keep this secret of love
Till death do us part
And thus ceal my lips
For all eternity
And you will have
All proof left of me
Forgotten somewhere alone and cold
A forgotten Love LetterGrowing old
