Damnation of Love A lonely night, love in the air As a mysterious gentleman gazes a stare At a sad quiet woman, sitting, awaiting Intoxicated by the juices of alcohol anticipating That someone will take notice, give her a chance Perhaps, take her hand, inviting her to dance In the twilight, soft, peaceful serene Too long a time she has waited to be seen As more than a tall, curly haired girl The alcohol buzz is making her head swirl The man is approaching with arms open wide The tall slender girl runs to hide From the people who see her as worthless and plain The ones who made this girl insane With the fear that she will mature to be A bitter old woman, never filled with glee The kindly soul sweeps her away From the mangled mess, from this disarray Of negative feelings, and makes her feel As if she were perfect, as if she were real Little did they know this feeling would end When a year and a half later they would reach a bend In the road not taken, by this naive girl A road of sorrow, the emotions it hurls She would be nothing more than a trophy to him The future appears happy but it will quickly grow dim With a year's worth of lies, betrayal and deceit At the road's end, she will see her defeat Her heart on her sleeve, that inebriated night Will bring her to this moment, this endless plight |

She would be nothing more than a trophy to him "The future appears happy but it will quickly grow dim With a year's worth of lies, betrayal and deceit At the road's end, she will see her defeat Her heart on her sleeve, that inebriated night Will bring her to this moment, this endless plight" I'm feeling this right now, Not pretty!

I agree with you Jewels, I've been down that road. When you reach that point in life, you just have to look on into your future, and see if there is any room for happiness without that lover. Like they say, there are better fish in the sea |
