I LOVE HER

I love her!

But she ain't mine,

She belongs out there;

To some guys cool and busked,

With silver spoon in their mouths.

But I love her.

I love her so badly,

I can tell she does too.

But she will be gone to another;

Another who they set a table before,

Who makes cigarettes their daily food,

Who smiles like an Englishman,

Walking with swag to show off.

How I wish I could fight it;

I could voice out and stand.

But I know, if ever I do,

I will be done;

Done like daylight that will soon fade,

And darkness will be my portion.

I will let her go!

No matter how much she tugs at me,

No matter how much she cries,

No matter the words she says to me,

She belongs to another, I know;

Another who perhaps has got everything,

For she once told me I possess nothing.

So I will stroll off,

With a smile, despite my heart pains.

I will walk and walk very quickly,

So a thought does not consume me

To glance above my shoulders.

Lo! Walking away to avoid trouble.
