The One You Adore

December 28, 2015




It is one of those "inevitables"...
The "worldly wise" might say...
Don't fool yourself
Or live in dreams...
It all will fall some day...

The eyes of love will see one thing
When friends may see another...
And no surprise to them at all
When the veil of love has fallen.

But... is it really such a bruise
When the one you adore becomes human...?
Or might it really be a joy...
When... after all...
You know the one
Who looks back at you in the mirror.
