The following is based on a true story...
MARY
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I once knew.
Whoe lived in a small town as once did I.
For this is when my sad, broken heart flew.
And Mary, my friend, was cast in the sky.
Mary was my life,k my music, my sun
She was my end-all, be-all in this life.
whenever with her we always had fun
And her lips were as the water of God.
But then came another who felt the same.
he love Mary too and she was his joy.
It was he that caused me all of my pain.
Let me now tell you 'bout a boy named Roy.
Roy was a boy, not quit younger than me
We got into a fight that got hairy.
(He and I weren't great friends as you can see.)
This was all o'er our only live, Mary.
We fought until we were blue in the face.
Until gallons of blood ran from our sweat.
But to our dismay we used to much haste
For the scronfulness of Mary we met.
Our feud went on and on and on for days.
Though Mary did never choose one of us.
But then one stricken day; home went our grades.
And the feud did stop and we did not fuss.
The reason we stopped fighting o'er Mary
Became clear when she came back there after
A black heavy burden she did carry.
Mary's father, that day, did beat her.
She had a black eye and a bloody lip.
We sat next to her and asked her to tell.
From our resting, open hearts she took a sip.
Then Mary's father we wanted to kill.
But Mary went on, her heart close to our.
We walked and talked as friend, not a lovers.
But still every day we'd pick her flowers.
On the hot days when the bees did hover.
We used to sit and talk in the park.
Where we would laugh and stroll with her all day.
At this time we were as happy as larks.
But on Mary's face weariness was laid.
We used to gaze at the stars every night
Mary always said she'd like to be there.
This is when our relationship took flight.
For we saw then that love was Mary's lair.
One calm night we received word from Mary.
She said to come to our spot in the park
She ne'er done this so we didn't terry.
So we walked through the grass in the nights dark.
We read the last part of the note on route
It said to us: Come now, hurry and leave
Put on your jackets and strap up your boots.
When you get herelook up and you'll see me.
Then we came to our secret spot with her
Where all of our time was always the best
But then we say in the dark there after
There sat Mary with a knife in her chest.
