Unfaithful

I see your eyes wander away

I watch you watch her

As her hips sway

The lure of the forbidden fruit

Is like the siren's song

Makes me feel inadequate

Makes me feel small

I find questioning myself

What makes a woman's worth?

Is it the size of her hips?

Is it the beauty of her face?

Is it her endless legs?

Is it the color of her hair?

Is it her charm or her grace?

Does it really matter

On what lies beneath?

Does it really matter

In what she believes?

Does it really matter

On the choices she makes?

Maybe I am insecure

Maybe I am just being silly

But I know what I am

And I know what I cannot be

If I can respect their territory

Why can't they respect mine?

I know you have not crossed the line

And yet in my heart I feel betrayed

Do your actions make you unfaithful?

Or is it ok if in your thoughts you stray?

Yeah you come back home to me allright

But how much of you has wandered away?

How much of you really wants to stay with me?

How much of you is really mine?

This is so "woman"...and it really it home....sometimes you do wonder knowing you don't really have a reason to...but a woman knows when a man's eye wanders. a woman always knows. and hence ends up being insecure. i wish we weren't granted with the powers of intuition because it is our strength and weakness at the same time..
