Mystery

By Lutra Cana

You are a mystery to me              

The one person I know better

Than anyone

Even myself

 

I've tried to figure out

Why you've stayed

All these years

 

You deserve so much

More than I can ever give

I take far more than

I have the right to

 

I think you'd give your soul

To me if I asked you to

I know that you've given

Your heart

 

Even though I don't deserve it     

 

There are times I see

You watching me

And I know you wonder too

 

Am I as much a mystery

To you

As you are to me

Two people so disimilar

 

We were thrown together

By fate

Kept together

By trust

 

There's nothing I wouldn't

Do to keep you

But I still don't know

Why

 

You're a mystery

Pure and simple

One I'll never solve

 

And sometimes I wonder

What's on the final page

But I don't want to know

The ending

Because the middle

Is far more than

I'd ever hoped for
