She Said
Location
She said that she was unhappy
I asked her "with us, or with me"
She said she was sorry, but she could not say
And left me a tormented soul all day
She said "I love you" long before I
So why do those words all seem a lie
She said it first, but never again
Am I but an infatuation, reaching its end?
Her mind, so obscure, hidden by mist
She lets no one in, no matter how they insist
Her heart, so darling, when seen through my eyes
But weighted by agony, of an untold size
She said "I'm yours, and you are mine"
A cliche older than father time.
But believe her I did, and believe her I do
Despite how often she turns me blue
She said she is difficult, with that I agree
Only constant turmoil for us, I foresee
The root of our problems is the root of her being
To shield her heart from harm, she turns to fleeing
One instant "I loves you", the next a push
Her heart wrapped tight in thorny bush
Once approached it strikes and lashes
My body left a mess of sorrow and gashes
I plead for her mercy, and her mercy she gives
My soul barely left, but for her I still live
So I shout to the sky, to the heavens above
I will always pursue her, she is my one love
