Past Affairs Of The Heart

You were the depth to my ocean
The cloud in my sky
I would have done almost anything
To be that twinkle in your eye
Sitting in my house just daydreaming
I waited hours on in
To hear your voice
Just to have your hands on my skin
I must admit
I was intoxicated
With the essence of you
I was captivated
By the finessing of you
I loved the way you smelled
Every time we were near
I was a teenager
Thinking you were sincere
How could you touch me so gentle
Yet looked in my eyes and lied
How could you make love to me so tender
And leave me feeling paralyzed
Every time we made love
It felt like a honeymoon
Wrapped in your arms
My own love cocoon
At least in my mind
We were the perfect fit
But you thrived off
The love I’d transmit
How could you break my heart
How could you take advantage
I was just 16 years old
Still thinking love was enchanted
You were my prince
I waited for to save me
Yes I was foolish
Accepting what you gave me
If only I’d had known my worth
I would have walked away at the start
But hey how could you know I had no one
How could you know I had a fragile heart
I’m not angry with you
I enjoyed most our time
We were two different life forces
You austere and me a paradigm
Our paths wouldn’t interlace anyway
You are night and I am day
Oh but I enjoyed your company
My own mini get-a-way
I wonder if you ever feel bad inside
Knowing how you did me wrong
Knowing that I cared for you
As you tagged me along
Helping to build my wall
That would later hinder true love
From someone who saw me worthy
To show me what love is made of
I will always remember you
Your kisses and your touch
That caress I once craved
A long time ago so much
