I gave you a gift
wrapped pretty and new
You didn’t handle it gently
Now it’s broken too.

I gave you a gift
but you threw it away
That gift was my heart
Why didn’t you stay?
You said I was kinder
Than any woman before
I gave you this gift
Yet you walked out the door.

As you were leaving
You put it this way,
I didn’t ask for this gift
Is what you did say.

You taught me a lesson
I shall never forget
Shouldn’t have given my heart
For that I regret.
