I Must Succumb

With every day I am learning.Even with my world turning.Like my stomach turning overevery time I hear my lover.Or when I hear his nameI will never feel the same.But I must come to realizethat even I can not idealize.Because the truth of the matteris that my hearts on a platter,For the taking of my loverBut he will never comeso I must succumb.
