    You saw something, a mysterious allure
    You made me feel big despite my stature
    I couldn't see it; I saw you instead
    I never believed I could be so misled

    I was dizzy
    I was wrong
    I believed fiercly in you
    I was unstable
    Unhappy
    There was nothing you could do

    I was your siren, you were my lion
    Stroking your mane led us both to heaven
    You ambushed me, a lovely surprise
    You broke me each time, but that look in your eyes...

    I was dizzy
    I was wrong
    I believed fiercly in you
    I was unstable
    Unhappy
    There was nothing you could do

    But there was a side I refused to see
    You did as you pleased and lectured me
    I turned my blind eyes and loved you regardless
    But you couldn't ignore I'm a hopeless mess

    I was dizzy
    I was wrong
    I believed fiercly in you
    I was unstable
    Unhappy
    There was nothing you could do

    I'm just a fool
    I'm not over you

    I'm not completely sure, but I think this describes how I'm feeling right now. Bravo!

    It's just a little lament on all the pretty things guys say before they ditch you :D. I'm glad you like it, and sorry you feel the same. Thanks!

    this stanza is where the power's at... there's either an entire story within there, or many more similar occurrences contained behind. this whole piece sounds like a song to me... maybe because I've been writing lyrics lately! ;)

    Thanks for sharing this; the tragic air that fuels it is a feeling I find so familiar!

    Agree with fulmah on all accounts.
    But also that first stanza is a great capture, especially the first two lines. I can relate to those a lot!

    Ah, but that we would bind our selves so, and yet by that bondage, and the breaking thereof, be free. I tell you, it is rare that a relationship has not soured itself in my experience. Yet those things that decay come again to fullness, given time. It seems the cruelest of ironies to those unaquainted with the fundaMental Laws of Nature that Change should have to be the agent of Stability, but such is the case.

    eMBeMLaHV! :)

    Well thank you everyone. It actually is a song I'm working on. And the second verse is basically as plain as it seems. He referred to me as a siren, and he had a big beard that I scratched all the time. Sorry it's not deeper lol.
