Who do you see

                     Who do you see
                     When you look at me
                     Do you see a face, that you once knew
                     Or is this face just blank to you.

                     Why do you remember friends from the past
                     Yet forget the man whom you stole his heart.
                     Are you married, you ask such things
                     Why do you wear a wedding ring
                     And what does your wife have to say
                     When each night with you I lay
                     For my touch, your mind does smooth
                     But one wrong word can change your mood
                     To one of fear when I am near
                     Or one of rage, frustration, tears
                     And me the stranger, once again appears.
                     But;
                     Deep in your mind, is there some little place
                     Someday to let a memory, of this face.

                     For who do you see
                     When you look at me
                     Do you see the man, whose love you knew
                     Or is this man just blank to you.
