Every damn fool thing you do in this life, you pay for.





-Edith Piaf, 1963


Baby, I know places we can go

Into the woods we will roam

Far, far from home

In the dark misty night

Just you and I alone

Take my hand now, vagabond

We'll find a place where we belong

And I'll write the words to our song

Our songs of love and wandering

Just you and I alone

Follow my footsteps down the road

Along the fences we can go

And no one will know

Together we can walk that way

Just you and I alone

When we reach that secret place

We will not want to leave for days

For I will meet your undying gaze

And that will make us stay

Just you and I alone

Wed me to the grass and leaves

And your love will forever be

Mine to keep for eternity

Even when we both depart

Just you and I alone

Remember this place, after I die

Come again, solitary this time

And remember when I said you are mine

My vagabond lover, I love you

And just you alone...


The author's comments:

Wandering alone in the woods at my school during my off-block and realizing the beautiful places to explore. I love nature and have a passion for love, and the combination inspired it. I also have a dark side, which comes at the end of this poem.
