This Love That Lies One Sided

And I,
The traitor that I am
Have not a promise kept,
Nor have the birds flown backwards
Nor have the statues wept.

And I,
The devil that I am
Have not much more to give,
Nor can I offer kindness
Nor can I let this live.

And you,
The one eyed love,
Have not a promise kept
Nor has the clock spun backwards
Nor have I wept as yet.

But I,
With you and all my love,
Have a little heart that’s left
That you have not yet taken
That you have yet to get.

And I,
The beggar that I am
Am no more saint than soldier
But begged for what I dreamt
The love I thought you were.
