Marilyn

Mystical apparition resting in luminance,

Your name hath altered my passion.

Timidly on now,

I go.

 

Fervently,

I walk alone.

Calling your name in shadows,

so I will atone.

 

Oh, it is naught,

for I have bought

a brighter day.

Always shall I stay,

to say:

 

I shall hold,

like a thousand bold

soldiers. Just to look

inside those emerald eyes.
