One showers you with presents
Works herself from night to day
Knowing all the toys and trinkets
Are the reasons why you stay
Daily stressing how to keep you
Nightly pacing while you're gone
Never enough toys and trinkets
She knows that you're not alone
One still hopes that God will damn you
She has nothing good to say
Every chance she gets, she seizes
To warn others, "Stay away!"
Her pain has left her bitter
Her countenance has changed
What love she felt had rotted
Broken promises to blame
Another one still wants you
Her true feelings shock the air
She hoped you'd come and save her
She knows now, you never cared
Though her belly, twice, was swollen
And her diamond gleams like snow
Her happiness is pretense
She still wonders where you go
Your own ring shines as brightly
Only jewelry on your hand
Another begs you to discard it
Would the giver understand?
Then, another
Numb from hurting
Still wanting, hoping still
Receiving you in darkness
Counting each encounter ‘til
The next time you declare
You'll not be the man you were
It's the start of every instance
Ends with you inside of her
Who are they?
Just silly women?
Who are you?
A man?
A boy?
Broken soul in search of real love
Never meaning to destroy
Never meaning to cause damage
Never meaning to bring pain
Wounded child in search of real Love
Silly women in the way
Silly women needing real love
Choosing wrong, and losing faith
Set sights on you-
Broken man-child
Praying that one day you'll change
Thinking that one day they'll change you
Confident they have the power
Silly women seeking real Love
Wounded child in search of real Love
Broken people needing real Love
In denial every day
The results of twisted teaching--
Wounded souls along the way
