I saw you first when we were young
I didn't like you, I swear
And I could see you didn't like me either
We were even at least that way.
I was a gypsy, you were a brunette,
Your brother hit me with his whip, twice everyday;
Scars like river run through the
Wasteland of my skin
You would kiss them all one by one,
My only luxury that was;
We grew together in dirt and scorn:
Your hair haggard like mine,
Your feet rough like mine,
We grew same in, yet, another way.
I loved you more than my sister,
But I never confessed because we both knew
Your love for me ran parallel with mine
But mine was deeper and perennial,
Yours shallow and fickle
That's why you chose him over me
And broke my heart along with yours.
My tormentor, my love, my life,
I pictured my life with you
You burned it up with a single I do.
