Beauty


If your beauty had a melody it would be more soothing than a harp's. 

Your beauty gives me the strength to climb the largest scarp.
Your beauty enlightens me whenever I'm caught in your gaze.
Whenever I behold your beauty I'm always stationary in a bewildering daze. 
I'm awed by the beauty of your shimmering eyes.
Wherever you go jealousy attracts to you like rotten meat draws flies.
Envy seeks to destroy your elegancy.
But your beauty is envy's constant repellency.
But your beauty is just a small aspect of how amazing you are.
Your character is genuine and sweet like  cookies from grandma's jar.
In times of sickness you transform my pain into robust.
You're like oil that saves metal from its rust. 
You're pleasant like the cheese inside of a stuffed pizza crust.
You say that you aren't perfect but for me you're just right.
The presence of you in my dreams blesses me at night.
You're strong but your beauty is all that you need to win any fight.
If I was a bird you'd be my motivation to take flight.
