Losing her

Hector Martinez 1986 (Bexar)



Recollection of my thoughts has brought me to see.
 That one day one night Is all it took .
To take myself straight out her book .
When a man takes a woman for granted .
Walking a thin line that's no longer straight just slanted .
His complacency in there love was what gave him strength .
Her smile that stretched full length .
To see his woman's eyes light up with his presence .
Brought him joy like a spoiled little boy .
As time went on he learned that there was more to his woman's heart than he prepared for from the start ..
When the relationship began she was his woman Friend and had a heart
Untill his jealous ways tore hiz and hers apart
And send him from the front of the line back to the start
 That one day one night Is all it took .
To take myself straight out her book .
When a man loses his woman his soul is haunted with the realization of a future he always wanted
Walking a thin line that's no longer visible
Has made his absence almost invisible

Now that she is gone all that's left is sadness
And as he deals with the pain and the thoughts in his brain
Not knowing if he's going insane
A man realizes things will never be the same
As she trys harder and harder to forget his name
All the man can do is drown in shame
With no one left around only himself to blame ..
