Through A Man's Eyes

Pinned the blame on the foolish game.
It's not the same without you.
Never trusted time to unwrap the gift inside.
The dirt got in her eyes..tears blurred her vision.
Just couldn't live with a broken vessel.

Pain lingers on; the child in him withdraws
Behind dark shadows of hurt and unforgiveness
"She never understood me!"
Words of solace to a fool.
Open your eyes and look deep inside.

"Man up!" she said, "I'd hope he'd change."
Change is life's difficult equation.Unsolved.
Now, I flirt with loneliness and romance lust.
Got so much to offer but I'm scared to try.
No one hears my angry cry.

Kiss of rejection from a nagging heart.
Now, it's me and You, Lord
"I surrender. Do your thing...lovingly."
The child in me longs for a Father.
Teach me how to be a man..a woman's desire.
