Take a Peek Inside

My skull is full of secrets waiting to get out, From a mind that uses all available orifices. This mouth telling you one of a million stories, My brain escapes from within each time it speaks. These eyes send each precious memory outside, Some have even ridden there on a lonely tear. My ears are a different story from the rest, They love to pull those sighs back inside. And let's not forget all those wonderful accessories, Without lips my mouth would never have known a kiss. My ears feeling no ecstasy nibbles minus their lobes, Eyes missing those lovely surprises if not for lids. Of course my nose does do a romantic ebb and flow, Inhaling life's perfumes while exhaling the passion. Hoping you've enjoyed this brief trip into my psyche, Still, all my outer ornaments have made a contribution.
