a heart too full for farewells

"There lived a man whose name was Jean Valjean.
He stole some bread to save his sister's son.
For nineteen winters served his time.
In sweat he washed away his crime."



"Years ago...
He broke parole and lived a life apart."



"How could he tell Cosette and break her heart?"



"It's for Cosette this must be faced.
If he is caught she is disgraced."



"The time has come to journey on.
And from this day he must be gone."
