Lessons in my love-time

by Siphosetu Candy   Dec 31, 2013


You taught me how to believe
When I was away you hoped to meet me in some kind of way
You showed me how to laugh,
How to forget and how to love

You showed me the stars and made me believe two of them were us,
They were always together
You said I was the brightest star, the one that comes out before every other one

I learned to talk to these stars hoping they might hear me and that you be doing the same
The stars made the space in between shorter

Every morning I learned to smile with the Summer's Sun as it promiced a brighter future
She kept saying; some day from the east you will see your own prince in suits of amour
Or was it all just in my head?

I had learned to be a maniac over you and you liked it then
Today I cry like a maniac and you just roll your eyes at me

I have learned to look at the stars and not hear them talking to me anymore
I feel the fierce heat of the Sun and have developed some kind of rage towards it
The Sun has burnt me I look darker in complexion, i say
I am no friends with the Sun
The country music is the least on my playlist
And yet I'm still lying beside you while you're sleeping
I curse you, I wanna kiss you
I hate you, I love you

The Sun had done me wrong again
She did not keep her promice or is it my eyes?
I have looked on my east or rather right but I do not see my prince
Instead a monster that I had learned to love
So heartless and so ruthless
So unloving and uncaring

I smile only when the moon comes up
For I don't believe in the light, it had betrayed me

The light had stroke my eye and turned me almost blind
At least in my mind I am blind
Nevermind it is a self-chosen bind

Thou the Sun did not keep her promice
I do not wish to be like her
Choose t�?�² stay even thou I feel far away
For if I ran away,I'd be liar hey!

I have learned to hope that you will learn to love me again
