I put her pictures away,
back in the drawer,
where I’ve put
so many before.
I thought my journey
had reached it’s end,
but she did prove me wrong,
She said she thought
that I hated women,
but this just is not true.
I was just looking for a good one,
and I thought my job was through.
Was she good, that just turned bad,
why is it I can’t see?
For I thought she was that good one,
when she first came to me,
but in time, things went astray,
and she tried to get away,
but I couldn’t watch her go,
knowing how I felt for her,
deep inside my heart.
I fought with all my might,
and waited for the day,
these haunting evil spirits
would be gone to stay,
but with the door wide open,
and her beckoning them in,
I knew I had no chance,
and could never win,
so why did I try?
It was all for love,
the love I held for her,
deep inside my heart.
I thought it would be enough.
I really did.
