Love paid for.....
I've paid for love through many years
Of broken dreams and falling tears
It seems as though I'm paying still
When will you ever have your fill
For years atop your lofty throne
While worker bees around you drone
They give and give, and still you take
Then drown upon your honeyed lake
So, in another one does fly
From freedom of the bluest sky
Just looking for a lifelong mate
Not knowing it has sealed it's fate
You smile and take all it can give
For as it dies so shall you live
You bled it from it's deepest core
And watched it dying on the floor
So sit and smile and wait and look
To snare the next on baited hook
Then take again all that you can
From another unsuspecting man.......
Of broken dreams and falling tears
