For her

Your beauty’s but
A butterfly
It flickers by,
It flickers by.

Your eyes are just
Two shiny toys:
They glitter here,
They glitter there.

Oh if I could
Relieve your pain,
Swallow it whole,
I’d beam with pride…

But I’m a mere
Spectating fool:
That full, long hair,
Those hazy eyes…

My bumble bee,
My beauty boo,
You’re strong for her,
And I love you.
