Girl on a Screen
A compelling image on a glaring screen
secrets hidden behind those unmoving eyes.
That mysterious smile,is it raging passion
or hiding some old unspoken lies?
That luscious untamed mane of hair
has it been entwined by unknown hands.
Is it only for a certain someone
or a beacon attracting ships to land?
Your image projects an angelic presence
is there some devil lurking inside?
Hiding, waiting, merely biding his time
until he delights some unwary guy.
Your image shows volumes, but really nothing
no stories, no thoughts, no future, no history.
Still you make me want to know you
alas, there you are an untouchable mystery.
