In the Ears of a Lover

 

Everything perfect within a tear

Pure water dropped in the ear

Lover’s lips folded so sweet

Matching pair coming to meet

 

Welded as one with hand on face

True lover’s true love no trace

Bitter sweet essence of pearl

As the hazel eyes of a girl

 

Melting rose twisting into grass

Unintended lies surrounding quite crass

Swirling emotion of love’s intoxicating scent

Translation of mixed signals bent

 

Yet both definitions holed in my mind

Set my radar and its signals blind

To hear the sweet nothings of your other

In ear goes sweet nectar of your lover

Please, hold true to my deepest desire

Seize boldly and woe what you require

I feel your heart with every pound

And heal my part with one sweet sound
