Cupid, And The Missed Arrow

by Laloser05   Jun 4, 2005



I see your rise and falls,
I hear your screams and calls.
I wait for you’re out cry,
And I will run to your side.

The distant apart,
Aches through my heart.
Although are lips may never touch,
I still love you so much.

Why do you stay alone?
Why do you stay on your own?
You could love anyone?
Or DO you have a special someone?

I am always in shadow, Unseen,
I am a sinner, Unclean.
I am a lover, of the wrong kind,
I am forgotten, and left behind.

You live your life free,
Even when i want you to be with me.
Don't change, i like you this way,
Even though i can’t be with you anyway.

Two lovers never meant to be,
Both of them free.
Yet 2 halves a whole,
But their fate has been foretold.

She backed away, good girl,
She can face the world.
She knows the truth,
She preserves her youth.

He hides his heart,
Scared to be torn apart.
Although deep inside he loves her so,
But he will never let her know.

Parted by the tide,
The distant apart, now, too wide.
They stood close once but no anymore,
They have closed the open door.

Why do I hide?
Why don’t I stand at her side?
I love her but does she love me?
Is she the kind that wants to stay free?

Would I restrain her too much?
Or is she too closed to be touched.
Life is just so hard to explain,
I curse it as I stand in the rain.

My love falls again,
I feel the pain.
She hurts me without touching me,
I love her, she can't see obviously.

Should I be more open and true?
Or should I stay quiet and whisper I love you.
Into her ear and touch her hair?
Or should I see him love her... and stare.

I hate him; He's taking her away.
I wanted her to stay.
The way she was before,
I want to tell her once more!

I love her so much but now she’s been taken away,
Why did I leave it so late, why today?
I should have told her sooner and not waited,
I wish I had been forthcoming and not hesitated.

Now he whisks her off her feet, that’s what it seems,
She loves him, I am not good enough, Hess the man of her dreams.
I stay in the darkness now while she stand in the light,
I am not a wimp, but now i cry all through the night.

These two lovers are both sad,
But why can destiny be so bad?
This is what was meant to be,
They should know i meant no harm. They're free.

But they're hearts are in chains,
So tightly they feel the pains.
But they're meant to be happy and fine,
Instead now the blame is all mine.

I may look happy on the outside but inside i hurt like hell,
I hoped i had hidden it well enough, so they can't tell.
I think he knows, i love him but not the same way,
I think he knows, for now he stands away.

I should have kept to the shadows where i belong,
I was so stupid to have looked so strong.
When i am weak, I should let him go,
I think its time to let him know.

He saw it coming he said,
That it was like i was dead.
We never spoke anyway,
So it ended today.

These two lovers still sad and now alone,
They stand apart, all on their own.
Both in the dark, not knowing the opposites love,
I have new thoughts their love was sent from above.

I was wrong, my eyes lied.
But i didn't change anything even though i may have tried.
I hope that they become what they should,
I hope they become what they could.

One loves the other,
They can't love another.
I hope they let their secrets be told,
And that they see their potential and grab hold.

I lurk in the shadows again,
This time in pain.
She's not in the light, she’s not here,
I wish I could just disappear.

She's gone, I heard it came to an end,
I told myself i would become the friend.
I have no chance i know that much,
I just want to be near enough to touch.

I stand against the darkness watching time pass by,
I wish i could just leave without a goodbye.
No one notices me now as i was a time ago,
My gut feeling screams at me to leave, to go.

What's that that stand behind me?
Who has come to keep me company?
Its her, my stomach jumps a mile,
She looks more depressed than she has for a while.

She leans on my shoulder this i would hate to miss,
We kiss.

So i leave with another job done,
I am off now to have fun.
For my bow and arrow shall have a rest,
Until another day...
