A Poem About You
One day when I become a poet
I'm gonna write you
A poem about you
And I will put some pretty words in it
Evincing the beauty you try so hard to enshroud
I'm gonna write about your eensy-weensy feet
And your slender coffee arms
And how they used to be flabby
And your eyes like obsidian
Engrafted in pearls
Eyes that are always smiling
Belying the pain behind them
Gleaming despite the tears that cascade unseen
Eyes so beautiful
And I'm gonna write about your legs
And your big frizzy hair
That I haven't seen in awhile
And how you wear it like a crown
Over that beautiful, twisted mind
And I'm gonna write about the amazing strength of your neck
And how it holds a head so gargantuan
On that day when I
Become a poet
And write you
A poem about you.
