Endangered
Lover
The
epic tale of one heart separated.
Oh
the tale I bring you is not that of fear,
But
something this wise man has done right here.
Oh
the journey he took through a love-sick game,
Only
to earn his dark hurt and his shame.
Oh
Eugenius, you know, the trouble you sow,
When
you messed up your life with Katrina... Oh no.
The
trials you faced, the troubles you saw,
When
it all came to down to it, you were sick with much awe.
Plural
you weren't in your dorm room of sorrow,
Those
gizmos you wouldn't put down 'till tomorrow.
Your
affections misplaced, your feelings astray,
Why
did it have to end up this way?
Your
twisted thoughts, they continued to stray,
And
I was left behind on the dirt path that day.
Where
did you go and why won't you return?
My
stomach, my insides are starting to churn.
I
feel that my love is endangered for you,
All
I can say is all very true,
Believe
me, you won't, I'm in love with you.
The
dirt path I tread is so lonely and cold,
I
need a nice man who is wise and bold.
I
know that we're co-workers but you'll understand,
I
need someone to pick me up, will it be your hand?
I
do.
Note:
This poem was later written into a song called "Silly Songs
With Connie: Endangered Lover," which you can hear at
this link. When you get in, look for the appropriate title.
