Sweety

You have her name tattooed on the back of your neck

       Should I laugh or should I cry?

Even with the ambulance siren, you still cling on her

Baby, she is a wild flower
Her menu choices are ones you can't eat
        You have tried 
When you are going 50kmh, she is going 365kmh
Her beauty has you by the neck, with her, you only breathe by a straw

Oh sweety 

Even with all your sweetness, the sun only produces shadow 
Even with all your love to her, hers is only an opaque reflection
                      Maybe
One day that wild flower would migrate, then the curtains on your ears and eyes would roll up
