I Told Her I Loved Her For The Very Last Time

[Amory Blaine]

I told her I loved her for the very last time.
Kissed her goodnight, and said all my goodbyes
She dared not whisper back, not even open her eyes...
The first person I loved; I watched and I cried
Placed perfectly down; in my personally picked Pine.

Simple , effective and quite moving

I think that the second "not" in the third line is ungrammatical
