Jester of LoveA Poem by HollisAnn HarrisonInspired by a photo seen on FaceBook.
Your eyes, they hide
The depth of what is deep inside Your lips, so red I remember what you said Your face, so pale From a time long passed, a love gone stale I wish I knew Where you've gone and why it's you I love Jester of Love, My World, My Tower I give you my whole, my soul, my power And ev'ry hope of rising again Falls once more, my time is spent Tears upon a photograph This will be your epitaph "I was your first, but you were my True Why could I not find my life with you?" Jester of Love, My World, My Tower Chamomile mixed with vanilla flower Ev'ry sight of joy and peace I find myself ill at ease I gave you my fall Aware of it all And now that I see All I find is me Your face, so pale From a time long passed, a love gone stale... © 2013 HollisAnn Harrison |
