Poem for G–

O nameless, faceless, one:

My soul is park'd before thee,
blood red, torn open to thine eyes.
Of thee, pray, from my love, my lives,
oh gather from these bursting buds,
sweetest fancy of my cries,
be they forlorn or heaven bent,
lest i wilt,
lest they be spent.

As thou art a honeybee,
let me be flower to thee!

"Oh, do not ask, 'What is it?'
Let us go and make our visit."
-Eliot

liked this tones of old romance alive in technological age which needs it badly

Take a good look at my face
Well, don't my smile look out of place
look a little closer its easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
