Some stole in quietly Like thieves others with muffled vioces, whispers and stiffled giggles like forbidden lovers on a moonless night Some came in the back way Looking over their shoulders afraid of what they may be missing But you Oh you rang the door bell then pounded and banged when I didn't answer Until finally you kicked the damn door in stomping over the shattered remains You exerted your force dug in your heels and refused to budge I tried to make you go I begged I ridiculed I punched and I kicked I screamed and yelled I struggled and fought like a wounded tigeress protecting her cubs But still you wouldn't go You wore me down you gloated and with an "I-Told-you-so" face you triumphantly showed me The very thing you had conquered and claimed for yourself My heart......Birth sign: Scorpio
