Harlequin
Golden bracelets, dangling earrings, and diamond rings,
All of which do not belong to her.
The woman behind the curtains,
Behind the mask, behind the smile; sadness
Escapes through the window of her soul.
At first sight, happiness, the next--
Disgust.
Adorned with jewelry, disguises of love--
Unwanted.
Heated touches, a breathless kiss, an untouched passion--
Tainted.
One time, last time. Do you remember her name?
Unconditional.
Beauty lost by years, feelings lost by use,
She forgets herself in order live.
The Harlequin, the Beloved, the Unloved.
All of which do not belong to her.
The woman behind the curtains,
Behind the mask, behind the smile; sadness
Escapes through the window of her soul.
At first sight, happiness, the next--
Disgust.
Adorned with jewelry, disguises of love--
Unwanted.
Heated touches, a breathless kiss, an untouched passion--
Tainted.
One time, last time. Do you remember her name?
Unconditional.
Beauty lost by years, feelings lost by use,
She forgets herself in order live.
The Harlequin, the Beloved, the Unloved.
