Your face


Cover your face, or else
I'll lose my head
And daily die from want of you.
 
Cover your eyes, or else
I'll stare at burning skies
and raging rains.
 
Cover your lips, or else
I'll start counting kisses spent on your lovers
While longing just to look at you.
-------
Sweep yourself in see-through silks
That I may kiss you with my covered lips,
That I may caress you with my veiled eyes.
