IN HER EYES
In her eyes is desire
for a love that will poison
a passion that will madden
a waiting that will numb
this she knows not
but mine heart is black.
for a love that will poison
a passion that will madden
a waiting that will numb
this she knows not
but mine heart is black.
In her eyes is trust
simple, unquestioning
that I’ll be a just lover
endearing and faithful
how mistaken she is
for mine thoughts are impure.
simple, unquestioning
that I’ll be a just lover

how mistaken she is
for mine thoughts are impure.
In her eyes I see naivety
a victim about to fall
to the snares of false charms
life-long lessons from a wicked world
for she loves me
and in so doing, she loves wrong.
