Time To Know Her
Your beauty can not be measured.
The smile that can make a saint sin.
The warmth of your bosom elevates my happiness.
Assurance of living with me forever,
Makes me love no other in the village.
The priest witnessed the promise you made to me at our union.
How can I know your love?
Time has uncovered the mask of deceit.
Nature has revealed the hidden skeleton.
Your steps across the street,
Speaks of your unworthy love.
Running away because of my fall.
Forgetting about the rosy days.
Those days where I walked through the furnace,
To get you the hidden treasure .
You are running from me because my light is dim.
You could not stand by me in this cold weather.
