Faces and Masks

You have her face, but not her eyes. Fragrant words, but sweetened lies. All my poems spilled onto your page, kept inside more than ink, a quiet rage. You have her face, but not her eyes. Whispered words and lonely sighs. A dream that won't come true, sorry to say she isn't you. You have her face, but not her eyes. A love affair dressed in disguise. All my love laid behind her shadow, you're the echo the voice couldn't follow. I wish you were different and that you'd grow wise, you have her face, but not her eyes.
