Dare I Compare

11/26/2018
dare i compare you
to sultry affairs
with you lying there
naked, bare
an air of despair
why should i care
looking so fair
i can't help but stare
into your pair of brown eyes
speaking nothing but lies
you're wise
you disguise
your hollow cries
with laughter, cheer
endless jeer
your body: open
you always appear
tender and willing
without fear
but it's clear to me
i can see
the truth that lies
beyond those brown eyes
i feel you sigh
i taste your cry
don't compromise
for less than you are
a beaming star
from afar
but when you're close
i feel your host
making the most
your warm embrace
your giving face
leave no space
to compare the fare
be not scared
to be who you are
for who you are
is in no need of repair
you are perfect
you love with such care
don't apologize
for who you are
