Questions of Destiny
Questions of Destiny
Listening to bass out my window
Wanting my heart to console
Waiting for Mr. Wonderful,
Yet feeling so sorrowful
Destiny has reigned my life
Always remembering all my strife
Always asking that question
What is your intention ?
Feeling almost remote
Trying to handle as much as I can tote
My life is sleeping in his room
Scared for him, he will consume
Consume all the fear and hate
That I have been doomed with by fate
As I look out my window, I see
Light and day, I do decree
Watching and waiting for my heart to unfold,
Who will be that person
That my heart beholds ?
