My old familiar friend returns
inside the sorrow softly burns
the tears well up and roll down
in my ears, there rings no sound
yet devastation consumes me not
for calmly do I stand at the spot
I drown here peacefully quiet
and accept without trying to hide it
nothing will change the love in my heart
even as chisels crack it apart

I also love the last two lines. The love is there, only now encased.
By pain? Amour enarmoured? I have been there too.
