A saint without a taint

She remains a chaste, Face, with a beauty paste, Yet love, she begs to taste, To satiate an amorous thirst, Old age knocks in haste, She fears a love heist. All she got is hate, For love, she waits, Her eyes have baits, Her lips have gates, That close late, Yet no mates. She looks a saint, Though with taints: Her neck has dents; Seen through a vent, In her heart, a pain, She'll always feign. She's just hell-bent, It's true love she meant, Her beauty needs no paint, Even if only there for a rent, Let real love be in her tent, But love whispers faint.
