Hours, I would spend them Pains, I would shed them Loves, I would send them Sadness, I would end them In the presence of your care Unique charisma in your pores that pours Cleansing all my thoughts from when and then So that now I see an ocean I see time, sense, emotion, shining on the surface Hiding deepness never-ending In the essence of your ocean love I would sink forever, breathing in your soul And knowing doubtless that I love you I live to love just one that’s you Your sense of fashion colors you In leaves and flowers that come like seasons Every day is somewhere new Without vision but your image Without audition but your tone Without touch but your body Without taste but your sweetness Without odors but yours that’s home Without beauty but your soul You have charmed me lady Your humble beauty puts me placeless You’ve made me feel a love so faceless You’ll know such love in time my dove, the endless A kind of woman the hermit soul would seek And break the strongest soul to weep But my soul is neither, lovely So you hold my heart unknowing power The girl that lies amongst the flowers She makes the lemon taste less sour And infinity felt for every hour She has beauty of the winter moon In December after snowing You’re the dark made lady Your Eyes of brown ring and black center Your Hair of coal that shines signing to enter Your face without expression expresses Your Lips without moving tells pages Your skin that looks cool burns upon nearing Your glance melts the heart with a searing Your face that makes calm the frantic Your soul is the shining light of blinding love Your words are spoken from chords so fine A mind that’s made too well for mine I’m just a man made a whelp to thine You wish to see a better man than I And so I cry and so I cry To make a sea of tears with time I am the two-toed wanderer |
