Poem
She was not the pretty one
Rough and buxom
Tender only in her smiles
Tender only in her eyes
But standing next to glamour sweater girls from high school days
With brunette manes of flowing waves hung down to carry like a train
She was but plain
She was but sameness everyday
Until that time when stars were framed by unreachable beauty comet-like angelic came
She like the earth
Unmoved
Unchanged
Uncharted
Till her love became the warmth and rain
Unyielding
held by ourselves
Not to be betrayed
Except in forgeries which lovers make
Who must forget how hearts will break.
