Her legs went on forever.

Her eyes were pools unclear.

Didn’t mean to hit me in the balls.

I bought her shots and beer.

Her legs went on forever.

I knew she’d be unkind.

I couldn’t find the words to say.

So I let her read my mind.

Her legs went on forever

I tried so hard to please

She helped me get to know myself

Helped me off my knees.

I never got to thank her

Kind words for her to tell

That was many moons ago

My memories not so well.
