A Hard Act To Follow

Please believe everything I've told you It's not easy not knowing you You have taken my hands so that I'm not able to hold you You have taken yourself And forced me into rememberance You have taken your everyday vocal seduction And reduced me to missing it Where have you taken thoes lips And now who can I kiss You have hidden your face And left me to reminisce You took your promise of togetherness That was suppose to be endless You have taken your companionship And left me friendless Why have you taken your pleasure from me And left me in disgust Angered that you could'nt take love So out of spite you've taken the sex and left me to lust Left me with a constant lump in my throat Making it hard for me to swallow But as I take myself back in though I realize that You'll be a hard act to follow. " YOU HAVE SET A MARK, FOR WHERE BY ALL THAT FOLLOW WILL BE JUDGED "
