Beautiful Girl





Feel as if God is watching my every move

Does he know my pain?

Is it true that

he will not put upon me more than I can bear?





It's as if your shadow haunts me, most beautiful girl

this love, testing all my capacities,

straining all my faculties

while you remain, eversilent





You watch from the sidelines

keep yourself amused

while the lines on my face grow more defined

trace you beautiful girl

back to this game you played with this heart of mine...for keeps





Must this be so bitter?

Allow stubborness to checkmate my soul?

Beautiful girl you've taken the best of me

must the rest of me suffer in kind?.... If So,

May the pain of another, someday serve you to remind

don't you run too deep beautiful girl

in bitter creek

for some say that you beautiful girl

will reap... what you sow

It our eyes that delude us and trick us to see the beauty behind the devil. Remember the saying "all that glitter isn't gold".
