seafoam lilies

seafoam lilies dotting the trees of pine

once again i find myself with a heart wrapped in vines

too many men i have seen as unconditionally divine

yet after every time i dare to seek it i merely drown in wine

never once did i ever think that i should ever draw the line

but the gods are keen on torturing me, all according to their design

seafoam lilies dotting the trees of pine

yet again i've fallen for a fellow quite divine

time and time again he's grabbed me by my waistline

making me shiver and making me whine

but the feelings i hold for him remain genuine

what must i do to claim him as mine?

show him that he's worthy of being worshipped like a shrine?

o gods, i beg you to give me a sign

for the eyes of my colleagues drill into mine

exhaustingly scorning me for pursuing once again

what has only left me downing bottles of moonshine

but maybe this time the stars will align

maybe this time he might incline

maybe this time their feelings will be just as genuine

maybe this time i'll finally end up fine
