I Try

I wake, curled like a field mouse Wrapped in your arms, I know The house is still asleep Seasons pass in a hurry "Do not forget", he said "I know you best of all" I burn, I break, I try to do right You ache, you kiss, you curse But you lie with me tonight I am a wisp of a woman Caught in a gust of wind I disappear, like smoke You are, cover to cover From beginning to end, my friend The man you ought to be But I burn, I break, I try to do right You ache, you kiss, you curse But you lie with me tonight I burn, I break, I try to do right You ache, you kiss, you curse But you lie with me tonight
