through the hands of time
grey silken strands of ocean
weave a lover's tale
❧✿❧
through the hands of time
of sunken treasure buried
 in passion weary

grey silken strands of ocean
stripped of it's measure
by waves layered

weave a lover's tale
betrayal despair longing 
tokens her life's tryst

The things we get used to, these days! But ... how do you know they are handsome behind their masks?

That tale must be very very beautiful

“through the hands of time / grey silken strands of ocean / weave a lover's tale” - beautiful!

I really like your mask series, Gillena. I can see so many details of what happens every day in this poem. Two ears ago, I wouldn't have known what an elbow greeting actually looked like.
