Stablemate

How could one ever think anything's permanent?
How can you sleep when I'm going away?
I haven't a reason left in my head to not go away
Haven't you heard of a new invitation?
To give to a woman who sits and who works
Whose father does not ever not let her have something she wants
When will you work and when will you struggle?
To die in a day and rescind your own fate?
Because I haven't the time, nor have I the need to sit here and wait
I took her in when I just didn't want to
She came to the house and she sat in the yard
She whistled and stared as the day made its way
It was bound to be hard
It was hard to know you were the only lover
That you had tested so carelessly
That you would ruin me if I would not have you
This is your way
