True Love's Name
I have mapped your body
every blemish,
every pore
tuned it like a bow
for the arrows of my tongue
I have witnessed
true love's furies
seethe with rage upon the floor
and clutched them to my heart
one by one
I have loved you
and I've lost you
then shed a lifetime's tears
but always in a dream I wake alone
never knowing
my true love's name
every blemish,
every pore
tuned it like a bow
for the arrows of my tongue
I have witnessed
true love's furies
seethe with rage upon the floor
and clutched them to my heart
one by one
I have loved you
and I've lost you
then shed a lifetime's tears
but always in a dream I wake alone
never knowing
my true love's name
