When She Did

 

When she did come out to play

She was always gorgeous,

Lovely and brilliant,

So entertaining,

And yet,

She always seemed to leave

The little retreat door ajar,

Never straying very far

From the security of

Its numbness,

One wondered what

Her touch would be like,

If she would, if she could,

Break free from past restrictions,

Or was she stuck like a Cohen song

Held tight by lost love convictions.
