How do I apologise to you, as a lady, When I wooed you like a gentleman? Do I bow out, and kiss your hand? Again too manly; Do I withdraw in pique, dangerously fluttering my fan? I said I wished you the best, no apology necessary; Best to move on, and forget another shameful episode Of dropping hints, and asking to hang out, totally unwary And uncaring of the hints you dropped along the road Too long for my own stretching it; but in dignity I knew to stop, I knew enough was enough at that point, for my ***** to carry; The cogs in my head were grinding to a halt and over the top. You weren't a man to make an honest woman of me, But I would be, and am, honest without you, and believe, As I told you "Believe I will be fine", that I will fly As I have been flying; When you cease looking through a sieve Look up to the sky; and yet, perhaps once more, I'll pass you by.

An honest woman
You sell your soul For a taste of acceptance With muse in hand You slam, without repentance. Colors bleed thru And paint a darkend hue. So light can shine? So light can shine. Such blinded eyes. He lies in truth.
