A Love In Waiting

A tale that’s been told since the beginning of time Of a man and a women and love and a rhyme As sweet as love is it sometimes tastes bitter When stealing ones heart always look through the glitter For her heart sings for you but still dances with him You showed up to late and it all feels so grim Sinking in despair you look for a sign Hoping that somehow she'll throw you a line The world thinks you’re foolish for choosing to wait While her eyes have you spellbound your blind to your fate Your heart is a ship that’s now lost out at sea And she is the lighthouse that will help set you free Or is she a siren who watches you crash You’re a moth to her flame as you burn into ash One thing’s for certain when together you shine She's the wind you’re the sky and stars all align
