If Love Had A Thousand Faces



Quote by M Rose: If love had a thousand faces they'd all look like yours Your visage is what I'd seek first in my lost and found box.
I'd feel for the corners of my box with nimble fingers eyes closed I'd brail the contours of your missing face like a schoolchild pining for a spark of self esteem, I'd linger on words last spoken, before you faded out of place If love had a thousand faces I'd see only yours for all eternity lost in a sea of despair, I'd search for you far and wide like a mother craving for a child's return, I'd scour the city rummaging the streets, looking in places you could never hide If love had a thousand faces I would never look for anything new, I'd take delight in the likes of you and only you.

Wow, this is such an evocative and heartfelt poem, beautiful Rose..You really know how to weave emotions soulfully! A love like that is really divine and pure.."If love had a thousand faces I'd see only yours for all eternity lost in a sea of despair, I'd search for you far and wide" True affection has unique shades..And you've beautifully described about how we always look for that one face, amidst a whole crowd, just to seek a shelter in our home which we built in their hearts.. This is a FAV
