THE TRUTH ABOUT LOVE


The truth about love
I taste your essence, and it lingers on my lips.
I touch your soul, and it burns my fingertips.
I shocked my lips by kissing your mind.
I saw your thoughts, and in that minute, I was blind.

I once loved a shadow that disappeared with the setting sun.
I was left sitting in the dark when it was all said and done.
I became lost, cut down to size.
My whole world changed when I looked into your eyes.

I gazed deep into your eyes and to my surprise
I could see the truth, and there were no lies.
I held you in my arms and prayed that it would never end.
You showed me the truth about love, then blew away with the wind.
