MIRRORS OF LIFE
FACELESS LOVE
THERE I READ EACH TENDER WORD
ON THE PUTER'S SADDENED FACE
FOR THIS MOMENT ALL TIME GLADLY ERASE
AS TAUNTING VOICES CRY ABSURD!
BUT IT TIS I, IMMESHED IN BLISS
MANHOOD TOUCHED TO BALM HER DOOR
AND ENFOLD HER IN MY HUNGRY KISS FOR SURE,
SIMPLY THAT AND NOTHING MORE.... WOULD I MISS.
EVEN I, DURING THIS SHORT SPACE
FOR HER SOUL, HER HEART I DO IMPLORE
AS I WRAP HER DELICIOUSLY IN MY ARMS, THIS SWEET
CHORE,
YET THE AGONY IS MINE, CAN YOU GUESS?
FOR LOVE HAS NO FACE.
BE GONE! OH JAGGED EDGE OF TRUTH FROM ABOVE
WHICH I BASK IN FEVERED GLANCE, THOSE WORDS THE MORE
HATH LAID ON ME THIS PERFECT MOMENT IN TIME TO ADORE
AND DEFINE THE BEAUTY OF HER FACE I'VE NEVER SEEN
THAT....THAT FACELESS LOVE.
DOES NOT MY VERY FLESH BURN WITH DESIRE
WHILE THE FACELESS LOVE RESETS MY LOVER'S CROWN
WITH PUTER WORDS SHE SPEAKS FOR ME TO FEEL AND DROWN
IN HER,LIKE HESPERIDES' GARDENS SET ON FIRE?
OH, NEW LOVE, SHOULD WE CHANCE TO MEET IN A PLACE
UPON SOME VACANT STREET WOULD ME YOU RECOGNIZE?
TIS TRUE WE BOTH WOULD RUN BACK TO OUR ROOMS OF
DISGUISE
TO FIND THAT PUTER LOVE THAT HAS NO FACE.
TO KNOW YOU REAL IN LIFE WOULD DESTROY MY LOVER FRIEND
REALITIES ONLY FAVORITE TOY, THE WORLD OF FACELESS
LOVE
TO MEET WOULD BE THE AWFUL SIN,
AND BRING MY FACELESS LOVE TO AN END.
