Nothing new

Nothing new 

I never ask them to stay and they always go
All the thrills are gone
The tears stay and my vision is always blurred 

An unbearable feeling, a fleeting comfort 
Like a goodbye kiss 
but you know you'll never see them again
Like watching cartoons as an adult u know they are just illusions
Imaginary unreal
They can't keep you anymore than you can hold water in your hands

But when one just wants to hold your hand 
Little girl doesn't know what to do 
Older men scare me because they know what they do
How to melt our little hearts and lead us into temptation 
But your wisdom is not in years 

I don't know where it  is, I only know my heart starts to flutter when you talk to me, 
I'm speechless when I look in your eyes.  
A grown woman shy in a young mans shadow 
The silence says more than Shakespeare wrote

The bard didn't know the women's side of love
One of fathers not mothers 
Abandonment, inferiority, domination, and fear.

Never knowing when they should stay or go
Can she even chose
It's a mans world isn't it
No one would listen had she said a word 

No one but you young man 
A new generation ready to cherish that which is not new but old
Old as Eve, an imperfect helper for you imperfect man
