She


One moon-bright night,
She left
her room
and went for a ride
on her big straw broom.

 

From up in the sky,
she looked over the town
in search of a man
whom she could bring down.

 

When I came along,
she drove down from that sky
and made me regret
I ever said, "Hi!"

 

Unable to love,
she did nag and complain
until I thought I
was always to blame.

 

One day, I escaped
from that witch in my past,
and mem'ries of her
are fading at last.
