Maid To Serve The Stranger

Too many years pass us by
All the times we had.
And there is so much I can’t remember
But I need those memories now.

Things were simple
Things were easy
No need for things at all
Every need was catered for
But still some wanted more.

Brief departure,
Back again
Time didn’t seem to change
Either one of the two
Even after separate ways.

Both so weak,
But strong somewhere
Clashes of nature seemed to overrule
The words that were so often used
On brighter coloured days.

Behind the back
To go somewhere
Stab in the back
Simply not fair.

And it seemed I had finally won
All you wanted I just had
But then a twist, not part of you
I lost it all at once
Again you were on top
Or so you seemed to think.

But I soon learned to live without
And you made an attempt to live
But you tried anothers life instead
And it didn’t quite work out.

Still you made do
You liked to do
Make out became fake out
A loss of what you never had
-A weary drop of innocence-
Licentious was all around
But discoveries now found
You vowed not to give up.

A different way of life
Was all you seemed to have
Finally I am on track
You spent your time on your back
But time is all we have
Do not waste it constantly
If you’d just listen to me
You wouldn’t live the way you do.

I don’t pretend to know
I won’t begin to understand
But instead of using haggard hearts
Why don’t you learn to hold a hand.

Where does that leave us now?
I couldn’t spare the time of day
But I knew you for a time
And for that I’ll have to pay.

You’ve decided to leave us this day
Was not your decision to make
We’ll leave it as an even score
Don’t need each other anyone
I don’t know if we even did.
