Untainted Love
I saw my love in a cup...
Such a small limited space
The more I gave
The less I had to give
Can you imagine?
Feeling the pain I do
Even as I empty
What has been given
I find there is a glimmer
But I have to ignite
To grow
More of what
You wished I had left of me
I do not know the recipe
I am alone
... Yes, alone
Even if I found you
My true love
Would I recognize myself
Reflected in your eyes?
