ΤЂЄ SERIOUS MOONLIGHT
THE SERIOUS MOONLIGHT
i am a lover
of the serious moonlight
the solemn pleasure
of the rose
and the ugly criticism
of the early morning light
that makes me doubt
my frivolous existence
i love
not only the pretty things
the sparkling baubles
of your occasional kisses
the soft seductive touches
of your eyes
i love too
your lies
it’s twisted i know
but when you lie to me
it shows that you still care
enough to hide the truth
it is your youth
that bruises my age
your rotting love
that abuses me
