Yes, she says... She swears by the moon; the stars: the sea Her love as endless;.... as eternity. She paints her words... in colors so bold Promises spun.... like threads of gold
She’d fight the storms; she’d face the night Trade her shadows for his light... But when the world catches a glimpse The truth unfolds... the story limps.
And when you take it out to the open You see her vows were softly spoken. She only wants to be adored To hear sweet words... like "You’re my reward." Never chose him… oh no, not him She only wants her cup to brim.
She seeks the warmth; the tender embrace But not the man... just his grace She craves a crown; a throne; a scene To play the queen; not to build the dream or better still; not with him
And yet.. he stands; so blind... so still Believing in love, against his will. Hoping the one who holds his heart Would heal the cracks; not tear it apart.
But love; my friend... is a fickle game, A fleeting fire; a whispered name. And I hope you'd find; the one you'd love Someone who soars your soul above. Someone who'd walk; not just be carried Someone who’d stay; not just get married.
But if you search the skies and the sea Let me confess; it won’t be she For she is the shadow; the fleeting muse The bittersweet note in a heart you’ll lose.
