Farther apart, each day, our lives are drifting; / Farther apart at every set of sun. / The clouds between us show no signs of lifting, / But droop, and gather shadows, one by one.
Drifting apart! the visions that I've cherished, / Within my loving, foolish heart for years, / At those two meaning words, have rudely perished, / And in their place is naught but bitter tears.
