Jessel Jane Tevar - x17-I Was Wrong

(I suggest you read first the COLD WATERS)

-Clarisse Spencers-

I thought God gave her everything.
I used to envy her
as she got what I wanted.
She had all the charms, the looks...the brain;
She played with the piano
while i played with some men.
She knew all the books
which are strangers unto me...
she sang in heaven tunes
as i trailed off completely.
She's got an angel's face
that one would be amazed;
She got the tender sweetness,
you can see it in her grace.
She got all I wanted,
and she got my mother's heart.
I really used to envy her
as she had all what she got.
I thought God gave her everything,
but then I was wrong.
I thought she's just so perfect...
But you see, she's not that strong.

Jessel Jane Tevar
