She Showed Remorse

Two young people fell in love
During their long and cold winter
They only wore one tattered glove
And the man stopped trusting her
She would disappear for days
When their love turned blue or grey

She moved about to and fro
He didn't know where she'd go
And their love became haunted
She'd return when she wanted
With new outfits and clothes
She loves fabric, and that's all she knows

On one return, he declared war
When their love existed no more
Because she gave up and wouldn't try before
This time he thought she opened a door
So that she can return to his soul
And she saw light, unlike the mole
For once, she showed remorse
During the battling discourse

She went into her bedroom
And destroyed all her clothes
She wanted to live and exit the womb
And realized what she knows
Is that her love must rise and go
And she shouldn't move to and fro
And how she must work with him
For the sake of them

However, as the days passed
To herself, she had asked
These clothes are all I know
Should I stay or go?
And she chose to leave
While he remained to grieve
