Kendra The Sea Maid Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I. What you gave was nothing more than smoke and mirror While tears fill my eyes, the truth becomes clearer. Your words once tasted like honey wine Now have grown bitter and rancid over time. Trickery and lies, have you no shame? Trickery and lies, broken hearts are your game. II. Whispers, promises, and every single vow Means less than nothing to me now. A feeling warm, like a drink of rum Has left me cold and rather numb. Trickery and lies, have you no shame? Trickery and lies, broken hearts are your game. III. You flew me to heaven, only to fall straight to hell Now all that lies before you is an empty shell. I let you in so deep, to places of me so desecrate By using your sicking perfumes of deceit. Trickery and lies, have you no shame? Trickery and lies, broken hearts are your game. IV. Unmeasurable is my hurt and pain Yet joyful is your laughter at all the pieces you have gain. What will you do with this shattered and broken mess, Leave me here alone like all rest? Trickery and lies, have you no shame? Trickery and lies, broken hearts are your game. © 2005 Shana L. Martin Largo FL.

Captain_MacNamara Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Kendra.... sweet Kendra... I feel your pain. Looking back, everything is not so plain. The truth, or lies? Blurred like a spring tempest. The emotions and pain... confused like a sea mist. I'm sorry I hurt you, oh Lady of the Sea. And I ask with my whole heart, that you'll forgive me. I feel lost and alone, and wish for a guiding light. And ask that you please don't throw me out of your life. You are my mermaid, My Lady of the Sea. And now, my dear... I have to set you free. Your heart is your own, and follow it you must. For someone as foolish as me could never regain your trust. So I stand at the helm of my ship and dream of better days. And steer my ship into the mists to get lost inside that haze. I find the storm and it's hurricane wind tears my world apart... Remembering the way that you danced into my heart. --- Cap'n Mac Captain of the Iron Lotus It is the angle that holds the rope, not the size of the hole.
