My Portrait of You

MY PORTRAIT OF YOU You have gorgeous eyes that mesmerize I sit in awe, as in a daze It's hard for me to turn aside I scarce can avert my gaze I know it's impolite to stare But your face is so tantalizing Framed by a golden mane of hair It has me fantasizing Complexion so smooth, bronzed by the sun Lips that shimmer and glow A dazzling smile brings thoughts of fun Showing teeth as white as snow I'm in a trance, totally spellbound I know I should get up and leave But if I do, I feel I will drown In sorrow and forevermore grieve But life is not what we wish it to seem So, sadly I go on my way From the woman of whom I've always dreamed Perhaps she'll be mine one day And like the Mona Lisa so greatly renowned Your beauty will be universally appealing You'll be loved by all wherever you're found And the world will experience what I'm feeling Curtis Moorman 21 August 2013
