Hard Truth

I gave you all my sweetness,
I gave you all my loveliness,
You took everything I gave,
and then you have flown away....

I shared all my heart,
I shared all my soul,
I gave you all I had,
but still you have flown away....

In that valley of loneliness
I learned the hard truth of life,
that life isn't about getting what you love,
it is about loving what you get...
and all you have in this life
is none, but you alone...
and what you have in this life
is for nothing, but for giving it away...
