He said he would never go away
and she said she would always be there
with the golden promise twinkling in their eyes
they broke the rules together.
he took a job in Dover
and she waitressed lonely nights
The days grew fingers, long and pointed
for Blame replaced endearment
fights and shouts now came each day
bringing tears to soak her pillow,
asking softly why she stayed
and he could never find that smile from the girl who'd said "I do"
he lost her in his Absence
she lost him in her truth
time could pass without one word
until one day she packed up
bringing about his biggest Fear
the woman he had loved so much
had now the skin he could not touch
