Mona Lisa?
Mona Lisa who are you?
Some say Leonardo’s other half
But I don’t know-
It just seems to me
A girl like you could never be just a half-
And your smile-it drives men mad?
Is it really as extraordinary as they say?
It just a smile nothing more
A weak smile some have said
But maybe that’s just it-
The smile was never clear
It does not appear that you were smiling for much
Was it forced-were you truly sad?
Or were you just tired and that smiled appeared?
It’s all the same-it does not matter
I just was wondering who you truly were
Well, girl of flesh or of imagination
You are a timeless mystery
And I guess that is what has drawn you to me….
