The Other Woman Blues
July 9, 2022
Time turns to gold as our hearts mold
Your chest beating near mine gives me butterflies
Neither you nor me can explain the chemistry
Thou I have the feeling it’s because we’re meant to be
Monday through Sunday should our days
Talking and laughing and loving at our own pace
The thought of you taking my hand, officially being my man
It depresses me
Due to my sistership with reality
My youth you take advantage of
And no, I can hardly blame you
I allow myself to be deceived, hoping it will come true
Your starry eyes and glistening smile coming to take me away
Leaving our past behind, looking forward to each day
Maybe one day you’ll look at me and see the girl I see
The who loves you, cherishes you, and respects you
Praying for our holy matrimony
As you hold her close and kiss her lips goodnight
Tell her you love her, for it may be the last time
But as you whisper those sweet nothing into her ear
Be sure to picture me, alone, wishing you were here
