'Do I belong to you or do you belong to me?'


refrain
This ballad is Maria's song,
The forest is her home
I am her poet who declares,
She'll never be alone

Maria is so beautiful,
Though she is very poor
Her life was not a rose petal
This is more then a lore

She needs the things that I can't give
Because my life is poor
I am but a simple poet
She is so weak and torn


Refrain

She wanted children everywhere,
A yard for flowers too
But my poor darling prayed in vain
I could not stay that's true

She ran from me to hide away
I looked for her in vein,
her fragile mind was in such pain
She died and cried my name

Refrain

I ran and ran but was to late
Her body was so cold,
I miss my darling that I kiss
The clay I use to mold

Her broken heart filled me with grief
I cried and cried all night,
I knew my heart would be alright
For she was in the light

Refrain


The author's comments:
It took me a long time to finish, I really like writing poetry and this was my first ballad.
To me the singer or poet who was speaking loved Maria but couldn't stay true to her and her heart broke and she died now he misses her and regrets the things he did.
