Marks
You have marked me for life
pain unforgiving
It brings pain to merely recite
The story unbearable, always living.
Never leaving, I see your face
These are just the start of the marks
It’s like getting hit with a mace,
Or getting bit by a Great White shark.
You’ve caused me pain
You’ve caused me misery
I feel so lame
While you are so busy.
You bring upon memories
Some good, some bad
We had such good chemistry
Since I was a mere lad.
Marks, never leaving
None have relief
I spent much time grieving
I’ve fell from high much faster than a leaf.
I will give up many to forget about you,
Yet you always come back to center stage
In my crowded mind, not in the mood
I am still amazed by your beautiful face.
