Enchantress

Love: You can't shut it out, like the crashing of a wave, Once it starts there is no stopping it So I try to enchant you with my smile, But I'm afraid it's just not your style I try to impress you with my brain, But nothing changes- it's all the same I try to reach out, but you're not there; My lonely heart grabs at air My heartstrings reach out and cling to yours My heart an eagle, my heart soars Then the drawbridge goes up and the walls come down My abysmal heart is left with a frown I try to still my hearts ache; My love I'll give, your love I'll take Why won't you just be at my side ? To love and to hold, to talk and confide But you never notice- you don't care ! To love me, you wouldn't dare The stars shine down on my empty soul If you would just love me it would make me whole.
