Framed Mirror

You, a Different Man!

 He prefers my smile spreading lips

You, adored my smiley cheek deeply...

 

He prefers the tragic poems that I write

You, adored the poems that became songs, passionately...

 

He prefers to kiss,

the top of the freshly bloomed blue Lily nipple

You, madly adored to enjoy the fully bloomed purple Lily pond...

 

If he prefers my darkly browned eyes

You, yes, it\'s only you,

the only man who loved my brow...
