BEGINNER'S LESSON
The first time I saw her
My culpable heart craved
Little did my soul know
That she didn't know I existed
Comprehensively I told my truth
The three strong words
'I love you'
She was not ready for it
She was alone not to sail
Making an effort
Making her days great
Together she reached new heights
Alone she'd never
But she was only blind
Too sad that she couldn't see
That I sacrificed a lot to have her
She was never my woman
I never made her dream
I made her a happy woman
She knows it even today
But it's not important today
She knows I didn't break her heart
But she could only repay torture
I am nursing a broken heart
I am doing myself a favor
Sparing my precious tears
For she is too inhuman to care
And I can only sit and wait
A good day is about to knock
But to forget I can't
That I believed her lies
That my integrity made no sense
Blindly I gave my love to her beauty
Now I know better from experience
Devils are not physically ugly
Internally, the hell dwells
Their glamor kills sense
She insulted my purity
Embracing me in her unholy arms
I wish I could not remember
But I am just normal
It was a beginner's lesson
