Another Encounter
She could have stole my heart
Instead she stomped it apart,
Ripping it from my chest with just a glance
I didn’t even stand a chance.
No, she didn’t use those black leather stiletto heels
With the straps wrapping up her leg,
She stomped me down as I told her what I feel
I wanted to tell her even if I had to beg,
But she wouldn’t listen to what I wanted to say.
She told me of my faults in detail
And everything that I had ever done wrong,
Of all the attempts I’d make that would fail,
Oh that list seemed like it was way too long.
She slapped me with words so cruel,
Not hand with the polished nails and expensive rings,
Yes she made me out to be the fool,
With a harshness of a thousand bee stings.
I guess she just didn’t understand
I am just a man.
