Uncharted Contents

in sweetness confess the lover
true to his heart he gives all
for his ringed one left a space
to fill with warmth the empty air

full love lost given without qualms
the new one with tender sympathy
secondhand goods used merchandise
cupped to her breast she nourishes

tempests crash the moored boats
torn asunder the tied ropes
the one who left has return
to claim the hands with ringed finger

what to hold on but to heart
eyes towards the lover seek
the truth of love the honour be
or mere bandage to bind the wound

speak the truth in silence does
footsteps to the compass point
to east or west he must decide
pick the finger eternal hold.
