She is just out of reach
So i must try to breach
The defences she's built through the years
She's so obviously scarred
Never lowers her guard
Wears a smile to hide heartbreak and tears
She should shake it all free
How I wish she could see
A door opens for each that slams shut
Her mistrust runs so deep
She can't dream without sleep
Finds her feelings through flesh with a cut
She has told me some guy
Took the glint from her eye
As he altered the beat of her heart
She had given her all
She still waits for his call
Can't accept that they've grown apart
I'll step back let her deal
Hope her wounds quickly heal
Be on hand should her call come my way
Such a beautiful sight
Blinded by her own light
Still in mourning though finding her way

Peto this is just beautiful, you could have written this for me in the 90's you know us women we always almost see the light in the end. Ham on the eyes in the end the ham falls off in other words love is blind depends on each of us when that ham falls ❤️ I absolutely love this ❤️ you show true empathy and compassion
Thank you Teddy

No idea why
But
Got a craving for ham and egg breakfast now
Truly appreciate your time and talent

You’ve been on fire. I admire how proliferate you are. I go in stages but have these uninspired intervals that you found a way to burst through. Salute my friend. Much admiration for the way you blast. You’re a high level talent.
You are a high level person

Can't thank you enough
Beautifully written, peto, and applicable to so many who walked that path. It takes enormous strength to not let the past screw up the present and cloud the future. But fortunately it is not impossible.
You sir are a gent

She's lucky to have you in her corner.
