I sometimes stand alone and stare
at time worn face and wayward hair
that frames green eyes with brightest red
and do not recognise myself
Where is the girl that once belonged
to laughter, dancing, love and song
who always saw with lovers eyes
and sugar coated all her lies
She lingers somewhere far from here
a memory vague to those held dear
too long she has been kept apart
from you, the captor of her heart.
