Piece of Art

Piece of art
Majesty unexplained in your steps
Aura of beauty that could put the moon to shame
Implausible to encounter someone with a heart like yours
Golden inside and out 
Hazel orbs of delight that put me in a state of mesmeration
Dream of sheer serenity and fulfillment
Trace your marvelous face with my eyes 
Etching it into memory 
Kindness to fit a king’s glory 
Don’t know any other of such extraordinary character  
 Every breath has your name engraved upon
Love too radiant to display 
Scarring the eyes of ignorant mortals 
Who know nothing of love or true beauty 
Slaves of their bodies 
Pitiful souls burned down into char
Missing the raw emotion of passion
Born within all but disappeared within most
A glow only apparent in a few
 You and I its final possessors
