Beauty
When I say you're beautiful
I say it with my heart
It isn't just the way you look
That's only a small part
It's merely but a fraction
Of everything I see
Only the beginning
Of what you mean to me
A heart that knows no boundaries
A soul that's oh so sweet
That I am more than mesmerized
Every time we meet
Compassion for your fellow man
Is always shining through
Not only in the things you say
But in everything you do
So when you ask me why
You're beautiful to me
Simply everything you are
Is everything I see.
Hearts demise
I have given my heart away
With complete knowledge
That it would be gone forever...
Held somewhere in some maiden’s memory
Never to be permitted to see the light of day
Until like a delicate blossom clipped too soon
It dies a lonely uneventful death,
Only remembered as a fleeting thought
If remembered at all.
Perhaps I should have chosen more wisely
As if that choice were mine...
But the heart that beats within my chest
Is as blind as the beggar
Who seeks alms in the courtyard
Nay nay my dear friend
She is forever the holder of the golden goblet
The frame elaborate for my picture perfect.
So if death be my heart's destiny
Then no sweeter a demise could I have known
And at no lovelier hands...
Could I have wished the end to come...?
