he was kind, in my mind.
his lips, sweet.
we felt such heat.
then he lied.
it broke me.
I had to try to fix this mind,
this hurt soul.
it cut me down, this pain.
true love, was my true gain.
then we fell out.
so here, I lie and pout.
he says he is sorry,
that he does mean it.
my lips turn down, my eyes low.
I had to put my chin in a rope,
to look up, up, up.
stop, smile.
I have to give some hope.
give time, give an ear.
it'll be okay, love.
it's been a year.
that yell, that talk.
made us hear.
At last look,
he is mine.
I am his.

Center Stage with Gina C.
*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.
