How is it sad
the clouds of illusion disap-
pear once again
he’s not the one I thought he was at first
the balance of love gets quickly lost
How is it cruel
a woman’s untamed heart cannot
easily hide
her deep contempt towards a strengthless mate
how little compassion she can show
His flirt
doesn’t intrigue me now
His kiss
has lost its wit somehow
Oh! How I’d wish
that he was the one to conquer
my testing heart
I’d really like he could be up to it
but I think he can’t and never will
