Blind Love


If darkness shrouded my eyes
so that I could no more see - blind
'mi amor' I would love you no less
for with hands, scent, my carress
I would see with my thoughts a goddess
blessing my bed

I do not need this worthless sight
to know your tender brests at night
against my chest
my heart and soul envision what
my brown eyes cannot
a sweet gentle voice
your love
your touch

Last night while you slept
next to me naked
warm breath gently exhaled
on my shoulder
black silence covered the room
I could not see that cute little mole
on your thigh that I kiss as you move
like a cat in heat and moan

But this man's soul in deep night knew
what these fleshy eyes lack
delving deep into your heart at night black
in a way my open eyes could never do
