Beauty Ain'T Blessing

You opened the door ahead of me
I followed in my trembling cat moves
I still remember your yellow blouse 
with hesitation , unlike my indisciplined heart 
That embraced strange feelings at first sight 

you took me hiking 
And reminded me my favorite game
Hide and seek
Those terrifying cliffs,
Broke my heart in fear before you turned your beautiful back on me

I knew this moment would come 
lonely days 
Thoughtful nights 
Red eyes
Not every beauty is a blessing
