Love and the Loveless


A dreary mist kisses your weary eyes 
A theory missed this is for eerie lies 

I'm a lover loving the loveless 
Rhyme a cover shoving the gloveless 

Please show me one verse to hold dear 
Tease though see one worse to cold fear 

Fears hold my heart hostage 
Tears scold my art wastage 

Think before you speak 
Blink before you seek 

Pit vipers sink swiftly 
Bit wipers think thrifty 

Hold a candle to the wind 
Sold a handle to the sinned 

A dreary mist kisses your weary eyes 
A teary tryst misses your bleary eyes
