She’ll say goodnight to the sunrise
With a twinkle in her eye
The sun pays no mind
And she cries like a child if told otherwise;
Like a woman in love
She goes out of her way
To get him a star
When all he wanted was the moon
A star too soon
And she cries from the wound;
Like a woman in love
She shares her bed without a ring
Roses under dust
Dry leaves in the wind
Ice on the drive
Vaulted thoughts
And she cries like a maiden
A princess in a tower,
A trodden upon flower;
A woman in love.
Two minds with four different eyes
No two pieces deemed to fit
Shadows under different light
Clinging to the same unmoving stone
Alone and apart
Without ever sharing the same heart
She cries without ever letting him know
Tears falling as silently as snow
Without a word she lets him go
Like a woman out of love.
