I Wish-

...My heart perceived your treacherous smiles Or unmasked your alluringly camouflaged eyes Or your face remained buried in a myriad of guise. But this is Life: you fall in a trap; in lies it’s shrouded By the dulcet tones and sparkling eyes, you’re hypnotized; Faces you encounter shape your reality & can’t be avoided I wish I saw your true face Now my love, I can’t replace And the pain, I can never erase
