Cure

I saw her smile today,
brighter than the brightest day of May.
From heart to lips, from lips to eyes and there to stay.
Wish I could capture her smile in a bottle,
what fine remedy it would make
for this sweet heartache.

She looked at me today,
and then she looked away, like from carcass a tigress stray.
The light of her eye was not meant to shine this way.
Wish I could erase the memory of her smile,
what fine remedy it would make
for this needless heartache.

(2001)
