Three Ladies

 

One is old

One paints

One told of her love for me

They all took something from me

And gave nothing in return

 

The old one took my calls

And would not listen to my pain

Telling me that I could do better

My work did not suit her

 

The one that paints took my art

And returned nothing in its place

 

The one that talks of love

Gave her love and took all I had to give

Now I have no more

She is gone away to find another

To tell him about

Her everlasting love
