   How did I love you?
  there was no measuring
  far above this dirty world
  far above everything
  in your tower over it
  you were clean
  
  so warm and insightful
  were you in my eyes
  I was sure the rightful
  guardian of my life
  damn you betrayer
  how you lied
  
  but for seven years
  you were loved
  I laid golden orchid crowns
  around your feet
  
  for seven years
  I bowed down
  to touch the ground
  so wholly your devotee
  
  you were
  all I could see
  
  I've got my sight now
  I see everything you hid
  so don't you try to right now
  all the wrong you did
  I might forget you
  but never forgive
  
  but for seven years
  you were loved
  I laid golden orchid crowns
  around your feet
  
  for seven years
  I bowed down
  to touch the ground
  so wholly your devotee
  
  for seven years
  you were so revered
  I made offerings of
  anything and everything I had
  
  you were
  all I could see
