Words of Love
You forgot my intonation, and my smile
What’s behind it, wasn’t of your concern
Maybe you did not appreciate my style
Knowing that I have a lot to learn
Out of sight, then out of mind and heart
Out of anything, that can remind of me
Now at last, you’re free and you depart
Leaving for a better company
Once reread my poems, and you’ll feel
They were kisses, that I changed for words
Which were wrapping paper for the real
Real faithfulness, but something was misheard
What am I to do now, have you thought
Never doubt my love, you said to me
You’re not alone, you say, of course I’m not
I belong to you, but you can’t see
You can’t tell a heart which way to go
You can’t fake true love, you only can
Cut it to one side, belittle my soul
Ditch the words of love you said back then.
