Sweet Marya Nisa

Her friend walks in and takes up all the space
The eyes of most guys would fall on her first
My eye, don't know why, falls first on Her face
Can't deter, a blur, unquenchable thirst

Jet black hair, Her stare, part of Her allure
Can't detain it, nor explain it...Respect?
Her smile all the while is easy and pure
In the end, a boyfriend...far from perfect

Dance and romance, kitchen music we played
Lie or goodbye? This love must be hidden
Please no, don't go, I asked you and you stayed
Resolve not to solve, for now forbidden

She's the real Her, should I steal Her? We'll see
T'night 'til first light, Marya Nisa's with me
