Like a million little butterflies,
Like the cool spring wind,
Like the humming birds tiny wings,
Like the sweet nectar oozing out of a strawberry,
Like a cool, blue swimming pool on a hot summers day,
Shhhh! Do not you dare compare him to I!
For he was not born within a skin that does not comply.
I am beautiful, of this I have no doubt,
But this is a fact, not a way to stand out.
Shall I compare thee to a winter’s night?
Like icy snow, the blistering winds doth blow
Thou art just as cruel, and filled with spite
Those cold, cruel seeds reaped, in thy soul hath sowed
