About Her

10: Playlist

The first song was the beauty that was in her

The second meant her confession of love

The third was how her hand touched yours

The fourth told that her embrace was enough

The fifth was about her tender kisses

In the sixth her hips were swaying with class

The seventh was her heart torn to pieces

But her life she almost took was the song you played last

I stared at this list of songs you have played

Each song that told a story of a "her"

While each "her" was different, a similarity remained

They loved and adored you, but you went no further

You found me, your favorite, and stopped making a list

Of songs you want to play when the day was too long

But what puzzles me is how my pain for them persists

When they told me you were still their favorite song
