  A Cry

User Rating:

5.9 /10

  Oh, there are eyes that he can see,
And hands to make his hands rejoice,
But to my lover I must be
Only a voice.

Oh, there are breasts to bear his head,
And lips whereon his lips can lie,
But I must be till I am dead
Only a cry.

To taste a lover's being... if by smell or memory...

Sarah has looked through the smokey glass of life that could be...

I am a new found fan.

Thank you Sarah.
