You’ll be surprised to find that
she never belonged with anyone after all.
No, she didn’t need anyone else,
an absolute way of telling everyone to stay clear.
Don’t get me wrong, she wasn’t a cynic at all
she was just a frightened little girl.
After all, she thought, away from attachments, away from care,
was the only possible way
to break no one else.
All she could do
was to promise a spring’s dream
And you should know,
she was terrible with vows;
would make the ones she could never keep.
Her heart was whole, yes it was,
unlike us mere mortals.
And ohh dear if it was up to me,
The way things were meant to be
and the way they shall be,
would remain the same.
When the curtains fall and the laughter dies,
I promise, I promise, I shall be by her side.
