A single poster
Lined the walls of her bare white room
A strong but lonely reminder
To leave this small town soon
More than just a poster
A map of all the world
The pins best tell her story
All over the map they curled
A red pin where she had been
Standing quite alone
Blue pins where she dreamt of
And in her dreams had flown
What a dull world she lives in
No hope to change it's hue
The loveliest of creatures
Yet her world is still quite blue
Books hold her education
Better than my degree
She knows much more than i do
But her dream jobs don't agree
She walked into the woods
Down a trail she knew too well
Smoked her piece to make-believe
She was far away from hell
That is where I met her
Never to forget
That presence that surrounds her
Of sadness and regret
Her eyes were too revealing
Though her satin dress was full
An honesty behind them
The dredged depths of her soul
I took my silver spoon
And offered it with glee
But she much more deserving
Just threw it back at me
