Vanity

Lay to me your breast
Comfort me when I can’t
Unball the fist and remove the pain
That’s clutched so tightly within

Envelope me your skin
Encompass me and breathe me in
Beleaguered now but soon to flower
I’m smitten by your scent
I’m smitten by your scent

You’re all I know
You’re all I know
Maybe not all that I’d hoped for
But you’re all I know

Mythology betrays
Spitefully it glares away
Intruding thoughts to deny all costs
Amber face wear’n grey
Amber face wear’n grey

You’re all I know
You’re all I know
Maybe not all that I’d hoped for
But you’re all I know
