Tell Me Once
Tell Me Once
That drop of dew
Love is innocent.
The wings of the butterfly
Love is vulnerable.
The smell of wet earth
Love is passion.
The burst of orange blossoms
Love is madness.
The flute at night
Love is sadness.
When you look at me
Love is desirous.
When you look at her
Love is jealous.
Love changes colour
So does truth.
Tell me once what love is to you
Tell me once and it’s your word that will be true.
