Girl with a Pearl Earring

Whenever I stare at you, you also gaze. 
You have beautiful eyes; I'm amazed.
Words cannot convey the turban's grace, 
Its presence adds to your beauty's embrace.
 
Your bright face, your sparkling eyes, 
Your fancy pearl, your charming smiles
All are attractive, all are impressive, 
All are simple, all are amazing.

But, Maria, whispers linger,
 Making you seem untouchable.
 Whispers stay, 
Saying you're deceitful.

Yet, Maria, despite the whispers,
No matter what the rumor’s tale,
My loyalty to you shall never fail.
