The perfect girl is hard to find.
Yet I’ve found that girl, she once was mine.
Not just her looks but what’s inside.
She’s truly beautiful, in and out.
Long ago, i had the feeling, no worries, and no doubt.
Until that unholy day, when one became two...
Before the heart was shattered through and through...
It has now mended, unbroken still from hope.
The faith i lack, unless i burn HIM and hang him from a rope.
Too far? yes. Ordinarily.
But when something gets in the way,
Especially of Love this true...
I’ll just wait, pray and coo.
I have missed so many opportunities,
One’s i never knew.
Until it was too late, and began again the wait.
