a poem about what is perceived and what is real |
| Her eyes the color of spring Shed tears as pure as gold That stream over cheeks as soft as silk And flow over lips as lovely as a flower Those tears taste as sweet as candy But does she believe it No that would be wrong But life is so deceiving To herself alone Her eyes are the color of hell Which shed tears of fire That stream over cheeks as rough as sand And flow over lips of cold stone Those tears taste as sour as spoiled milk But does she speak of it No that would be wrong She just cries those tears To herself alone |
