Become Venus
2/25/97Become Venus, won't you?
Become Venus, the goddess of beauty
The creamy gold, the color of my eyesMy feelings in your reflectionThe clone of my dreamsThe conquest of my illusionsA million miles away from mePass the sun beam seasI'll dry the marble tearsClear the overcast of my lifeBecome Venus, won't youLike a fallen star in the abyss of this worldPenetrating deeply to its coresA beauty, a worshiped celestial beingWorshiped by the starsSo close, a reflectionDeep into my eyesThe widen pupil, the end of mortificationSo close, yet so farI'll never be the one to seeI'll never be the king to beI'll never be the privileged oneTo see you as VenusTo be in Venus© 2001 Johan Palacio
