We Will Be Exposed For Good Or Ill To What We Fear Poem by Maria Cuervo

We Will Be Exposed For Good Or Ill To What We Fear

Rating: 5.0


This isn’t probability or pessisism but fact.
What we want are the countless words, embraces and gestures,
the warm breath of a lover’s mouth
but we will never find a lover, that voice above all voices,
for it would be too much like an angel’s
and burn the heart right out of us.

Maria Cuervo,1993
