Who is the author of the poem entitled, "Without You", that I saw for
the first time in a Washington, DC newspaper, circa 1950.

The first four lines are as follows:

Before you came I had no heart for breaking
Before you came my tears were only mine.
Before you came I found no love worth taking
And never knew that love and tears combine.



The last four lines are as follows:

You took the only paradise I knew and left
me only dreams that fell apart and will
awaken with tears for only you. For
when you went away you took my heart.
