Frienemy:Elementary, My Dear

I met you on a sunny day Swinging to the sky I couldn't find what to say So I slowly whispered, "Hi!" Stumbling, fumbling, bumbling idiot I couldn't get you to come my way Like a ray of sunlight You ran about, giggling in play Soon, I joined the fun But fear captured my run I slowed my feet to walk Carefully crafting my talk ...to impress my friend I got lost in her beauty You could find me on her heels Serving her was my duty While she bent me to her will Spinning, winning, pinning donkeys Dancing to the rhythm of rhyme Not caring about the games we played Just that I could have her one more time Adventures on land or sea Or fleeing from danger with me We ran til energy died And the road between us, arose to divide ...hearts asunder ~I heard the thunder~ ...then...came the rain
