Analysis of Unfortunately

Shinerra Ward 1975 (Tennessee)



Never seen a glow like yours. Never seen a smile like yours. Never seen eyes like yours. Never seen a heart that beats like yours. Never seen a child who didn't like candy. Never seen a man with his ordained lady. Never seen a woman with her real man. She slowly wasted away. Dying for satisfaction that he couldn't meet. Never seen the sun shine til u came near. Never seen a mate without a mate. Don't get it twisted I was lonely and confused because the 1 I loved loved me back.
Yet I was making no attempt to
Solving the life factors until now. My broken heart is healing just like yours
