The Crown of Jewels

Your almond hair

And sapphire eyes

Make my heart ache in pain,

Sitting in my chair

Wishing I was wise

Enough to tell you the same.

Your luscious look took my heart

And made it treble, made it start

To spark a fire, one with flames

That would blast me past these gloomy days

And so I sit on this maple throne

To which my thoughts are widely prone

To mental clouds of rotting bones,

And it makes me really want to know

If your hands are as warm as your hello.

But neither of those will I know,

And so my heart is cold as snow;

Unless, perhaps, you repeal

This slashing pain of no appeal

And finally start to reveal

That part of you that's so surreal.

Everyday, in pain, I wait

And pass the time by slapping paint

On a canvas stained with inherent hate.

I pour my soul into what I create

In hopes of making you see our fate

But alas, in pain, I wait

Hoping someday we meet by fate,

Until then I remain a fool,

Gazing at the Crown of Jewels
