behind that veil she wore a charming immaturity

and behind those lines
she always hid
a charming cherub of a kid

but no one knew
why she wore a mask
and hid her feelings in a cask

she sometimes squabbled
and she sometimes fought
but in all this a relief she sought

she was in love
that explains a lot
but that was never a reason bought

life is short my dear girl
and a few moments is all you get
so learn to forgive and do forget
