For You

There she looks out of the window
Her face reflects the sun
The smile that gives her heart away
Lest she dies of pretense

A maker of love she is
A lady who’s just begun
Life in a way she’s yet to figure
Out of her own desire

Cunning are her innocent ways
Her cunning is but a guise
A curtain that drapes the beauty within
The tender touches of love without time

Her sight from afar
Is a treat of delight
As she comes near
Oh my, isn’t she dear?

The magic of her eyes behold
Visions of a nature sublime
Dreams of a world without crime

The struggle of her heart to set free
From the maddening hypocrisy
Her smile begins to wither
Only for a while I hope
She sets her lips firm and sets out on her path
She loves her freedom and
Will not soon come apart

She’s a lady benign
She’s a girl full of charm
Bring her a basket of flowers sincere
She’ll thank you with her thrill and a cheer

What else can be said, words are but cheap
To convey such prettiness to the brim
My love, you are, I long to say
My love, you are, I cannot but say
