Analysis of STORY OF A LADY
Theres a story of a lady
with eyes so dark and scary,
always looking at the ground
trying not to worry if anyone
ever notices her natural beauty.
She walks all alone
on a cold cold road,
looking around to see
if anyones ever found
the concrete stone that lays
on the cold, dark, dark ground.
She cries late at night
closing her eyes of fright,
hoping and praying everything
is going to be alright.
She sits up in her bed
just trying to clear her head,
from all the hurt and pain
that was driving her insane
destroying her brain.
She feels so helpless
in a small little world
tossing and turning
while feeling so restless
all she wants to do
is be there for you while crying black and blue
just so she can hear you say "I Love You."
