how do you love someone "i would call you "HOW?" the king asked "yes there would be! "with all due respect, sir "you're a man, sir "no, my cardinal "in less than 60 seconds i've found again there was silence which "wise man, "with all due respect, sir the man who had everything stood "there will be another face, my lord. "there was realness in the words he spoke", "someone would soon replace that face and yet the infallable man quaked "take your leave" "yes sir" he came and went as he pleased how do you love someone
who isn't even there?
if i could
write a letter
you know i would"
and there was no reply
"perhaps there's no way
no way my lord."
why would there be not?
for i am the lord
have you forgot?"
it was just a passing face.
a nobody amongst everyday
it shall soon fade away"
and married too
would you proclaim to love that face
if only for a while
just for the thrill of the chase?"
you're no further away from the truth.
the queen is nothing but
the queen of my flesh."
the queen of my heart, may it seem unsound.
i know i'd forget her in time to come
but why should i if there's some love to be found?"
deafeaned the hall it had befell
this man had absolute power
in all but one aspect for all to tell
i have nothing to lose, my pal
give me some answers you shall
tell me what can be done now"
absolutely nothing, i'm afraid.
you could love the face which isn't there
but that is all. it won't give you a heir."
silenced
by the dawning of truth as much as his disappointment
another passing face
one that will be there at your command, sir
and this one will be forgotten, gone."
he thought
and all this shall be forgot"
trembled
at the thought that
what he wanted most
he couldn't get
as do everyone else
but not that passing face. which went away
for now the pain seems too much to bear
who isn't even there?
