as a smile cuts your cheek

as a smile cuts your cheek.

How do i say
"I Love You?"
when our tongues
are not the same?

And my Eyes
Pay cruder
compliments.

(to lust without
a name.)

The Stars give
terrible advise.
(suggesting half-assed
faith.)

still,
you direct my
thoughts toward
Paradise!

(though my heart
remains a Wraith.)

how do I say
"I love you"?
when I've never
heard you speak?

and your Eyes
Are Graves I
Fall Into!!

(as a smile cuts
your cheek.)
