I used to believe in fairy-tale dreams
Of lovers dance enchanted romance
Twice I knew I found it
Several other times I wondered
Kept looking at the lovers
Wondering if this was...the one
Each a piece of me
Never to be removed
Or forgotten
Seems I just felt them all...each day
And to the ones
That seemed to get it right
I admired them, careful not to envy
While I prayed each and every night
That someday
A love like that would find me
A heart only stands so much pain
Before it's hard to even explain
That the callus's you see bleeding
Is not...your fault
So reclusive mad man
Dominates the very existence
and while others hold onto hope
He will stay surrounded
By questions, and memories.
