Enchanting Lady of My Life

 Enchanting Lady of My Life

I watched from afar

Enchanting lady of my life

Or so it was when I was young

Now her lovely eyes scrutinize me

Her aloof demeanor haunts me

Her partner welcomes me 

Yet she overlooks me

The painful acceptance of ostracization

Silent sorrow, anger, and aching heart
