Face-lift

Take me in your stride

I've been an eyesore for long

Or tell me where to hide

Now that I've found you

I can't move on

At least tell me the meaning of this divide

I can't fathom another misfortune

Leaving and parting are meanings

I fail to accept

I've been numb far too long

People came and left

and took with them

what they saw was warm

when you came around and

mended me through

time seemed to stand still

and life seemed to renew

I woke up and sought a new life

and forgot the miseries that befell

Sing me now a victory song

before you move to your seams

I wish there was no more storms

but such is life

and I too will march on
