To a nameless woman. <br /> <br />Let me become sick <br />To the very bottom <br />Of this endless <br />Engorged kindness <br />You have implanted <br />Inside this heart <br />Never before found <br />Is this invention <br />Of red on my cheeks <br />You have performed <br />A many a miracle <br />All I can do is try <br />To offer what little <br />Words remain true <br />In this lying mouth <br />I so dearly hold<br /><br />Stefanie Fontker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-smiling-heart/
