A woman without someone to love Is a woman incomplete; Like a flower devoid of nectar Sends bees into hasty retreat Her mind is a wearied battleground -- Uncertainty ebbs and flows; Loneliness - a cruel adversary, But hopelessness - the worst of foes Like an unlit candle her heart waits For Love to kindle the fire, And when the wick has been set ablaze It responds with burning desire A woman with no one to love her Does not yield, despite the pain; Eagerly she greets each day with hope, (Hope keeps us bound by a strong chain) So she dreams of her prince who'll bestow A rose-laden diadem; But until the roses bud and bloom, She'll find only thorns on the stem

A Woman Incomplete
A woman without someone to love Is a woman incomplete; Like a flower devoid of nectar Sends bees into hasty retreat Her mind is a wearied battleground -- Uncertainty ebbs and flows; Loneliness - a cruel adversary, But hopelessness - the worst of foes Like an unlit candle her heart waits For Love to kindle the fire, And when the wick has been set ablaze It responds with burning desire A woman with no one to love her Does not yield, despite the pain; Eagerly she greets each day with hope, (Hope keeps us bound by a strong chain) So she dreams of her prince who'll bestow A rose-laden diadem; But until the roses bud and bloom, She'll find only thorns on the stem
