There was a time
Some nights in the dark
Lying in my lovers arms
I wondered how you were
Justifying my traitorous heart
In quiet times, I wrote of you
Your thoughts invaded me
Wondering your whereabout
In a bid to satisfy the curiosity
On a gloomy December's night
With my lover still in heart
I sought after you, one more time
I curled, melting in your arms
Wrapped up in heat of passion
Curiosity got me stuck in a pinch
Weighing from whence I go
Confused, I whisper to the night
'Oh Father, I became my Mother!'
'Oh my lover, if I had the heart to tell!'
Guilty tears stream down my cheeks
Afraid to tell, scared of consequences
Fearful of losing my life's lover
Frightened of life in regret
Desperately seeking redemption
Praying that my tale of deceit
Not be carried to my lovers ears
With a selfish heart, I bitterly decide
Speaking aloud to the stars
Conscience dead to the night
Words cemented to my being
'To my grave December's tale follows'
Am sorry my lover.
