These Lips Would Splutter
.
If I had no pen
or slip
if face to face
you did me see
my legs would
tremble
and these lips
would splutter
So while you
my princess sleep
far off
from my own
my address gate
I cheerfully
with the gleam
with promises
and kissing dreams
dressing
and undressing thee
I with this
pen and slip
can be
your forever loving
humble
prince
