I couldn’t grasp it right away
Something blocked my path
It made no sense for those two placements
The cards should’ve been reversed
Why would I eschew, all that others crave and desire?
Family, stability and traditional values
All pushed aside in favour of, infidelity and adultery
It didn’t become clear until I thought of you
The reason I hope for treachery and betrayal
For my love to be deceptive
Is that I’m wishing for somebody else’s man.

Venus ruled your very nature
Mirrored your desires perfectly
But always out of reach
She was a siren summoned
Calling you to her grasp
With every note she sang
Medusa’s eyes couldn’t meet your own
Lest she gave away all her intentions
And turned your heart to stone
Aphrodite warmed your soul
Stoked the fires of your lust
Extinguished them just as fast
Narcissa loved your photo
Merely for its glassy frame
And the reflection you painted of her
But Helena’s love was fierce as war
With a face to win every conquest
And a penchant for sinking feelings.

I wish we talked
I wish we’d fought
I wish you’d ripped the pages
of our story all apart
I hoped we’d try
I hoped deep down you’d cry
I hoped for many things
but never this
I dreamed of us
I dreamed of trust
I dreamed we could work through
the issues behind that kiss
I prayed I’d be enough
I prayed you wouldn’t take your stuff
I prayed she’d leave you
but it was not meant to be.
