You Are So Special

I should have written to you a Sedoka,
For you are gracious and more than a mediocre,
Many do not know you as a shining star,
As their minds are clouded and their thoughts far,
‘one man’s meat is another man’s poison’
to me you are a gem from the north horizon,
Your imperfection makes you modest and real,
Different from hypocrisy which gives a raw deal,
If I’ve met you in your prime at a young age,
I would have wasted no time to write a new page,
Proposal that would have seen us at the altar,
Which would have made our present state better,
Love and you will be loved-this is not always true,
Tears have flowed from your eyes like the morning dew,
Which is due to wickedness of men that brings pain,
But I’m prepared to ease your pain and walk your lane.
