Hide and Seek (2)
A dark shroud has fallen
On your perfect face.
And the dark glasses
On my once eager eyes,
Hide my anticipation.
Because I have waited
Long enough for the clouds
To pass and now I'm getting
Tired and going to sleep.
I can't play this game anymore,
For what is beauty, but a glitch
In our sight? And what is fulfillment,
But a sharp pain on this luminous night?
In two days, you will be complete,
But I won't be here to watch you.
In your coming and going,
I lost my youth, I reinstated
And withdrew my long time faith.
So your eyes can very well shun my face,
Which will be forever masked,
Carefully unpeeled by your light,
You once promised me you would,
Learn to acknowledge, but once again,
Failed every night to shed.
