I see you every day through the window of my living room,

Leaving at the same time, never look my way.

Then I go out chasing your sweet perfume,

You don’t even know I’m here, every single day.

You won’t notice my presence

I am invisible to you

It’s just my aura surrounds you with my essence

And makes you feel my clue.

You love her like you loved no other

And dream of cradling her one day

I hear you crying at night, rather

That loneliness scrapes scars, your heart is flay.

Her lips — red like blood running through your veins

Her eyes — blue like the open sky that’s so immense.

Kindness that breaks more than a hundred chains

I know her closely; the love is what she domains.

When you come back every night, she leaves.

Caretaker of my body chained in this chair.

You’ll have her only if her load disappears
