One Of A Thousand

HOOK

You sit and have no idea what she thinks,

While she could not care less who you are. 

Picturing her smile or the arch of her thigh,

You’re just another uninteresting passerby.

 

Just one of a thousand girls you’ll never understand,

Happy never to try, and your mind turns bland. 

Her low-cut top and high shorts candy to your eye,

Like taking candy from a baby, you dream to try.

 

VERSE 1

Tall and slender as a lily, holding herself with wordless grace.

Elegance to match the sight of her entrapping face

Thin blonde strands float tantalising in some unfelt breeze

Gossamer that does not know the souls that it can tease. 

 

The movement of her hands is always so delicate,

Trying to fit in but she can’t hide her etiquette

Friends envy her intelligence whenever it betrays

Or how she tinkles the ivory with ease when she plays.

Her low-cut top and high shorts candy to your eye,

VERSE 2

A mind of innocence and kindness and of zest

Alien to most who desire to know her best. 

Her mysterious character balm to your soul

For you love that she’s still too wild to control 

 

From within seeps her light, always creeping out

From the corners of her eyes, the creases of her mouth. 

Bursts through in her playful smile, or her laughter just the same.

Attracting helpless wretches, moths to an open flame

VERSE 3

Her eyes can tell you more than ten fools in a day,

A laugh that will steer your heart to bloom or decay,

Hopes you hang on the edge of a smile that quickly darts away

Unrequited, remote, resurgent feelings that you keep at bay. 

 

Memory of her light remains, like thoughts of cloudless skies.

Her beauty stays with you, you remember it from her eyes

Like so many men before you, you would love to tell 

Of how you love and adore this woman and angel.
