I used to think men
should be more like books
Both you cannot
judge by looks...

If I didn't want to finish reading
I put it down... no heart was bleeding

A book will never fuss or fight
It will stay with you
through the night...

It doesn't smoke. It doesn't drink.
It won't leave toothpaste
in the sink!

It doesn't binge... it don't eat...
It won't leave up the toilet seat!

It don't forget. It doesn't mope.
It won't hog the TV remote!

It doesn't have to have
The last say...
It doesn't have legs

to walk away.

But it's not soft. It isn't warm.
It doesn't keep you
safe from harm.

Even though it makes no fuss
It can't think. It can't discuss.

Even though it has its charms
it can't hold you in its arms.

It doesn't pine. It doesn't miss.
It can't hug and it can't kiss.

So now I think on it again...
... I think BOOKS should be
             more like MEN!!!

Eudora
Such luscious lips, with pinkish glow!
She's beautiful.

*
Her chapped lips,  faucet like,
cascade only words of kindness..
She's beautiful.

Such pretty,alluring eyes!
She's beautiful.

Her heavy-lidded eyes : a pair of lenses
capturing only great sharp shots,
they see clearly only the good in people..
They never despise.
She's beautiful.

Such a lovely, curvaceous figure!
She's beautiful.

Within the slim figure,  is a soul
who'll share her food with the hungry,
even if it means she'll be left with nothing
for dinner.
She's beautiful.

Beauty is only skin deep..
Inspired by a brief chat with a dear friend today and Audrey Hepburn's insights on beauty
'Look beyond the features, it is reflected in the soul..'
Mailan May 2013
Looks are deceiving,
Eyes can read people easily.
Lies are told clear,
And thoughts are powerful energy.
So powerful they can keep you alive,
But leave many dead.
Just think about all the insanity in one's head,
Like how one kills for greed, fame, or even love.                                                            ­                                                                 ­                                     
If only we can read souls
This world is filled with peace and evil, like war
But one day will it only have one?
I can't be fooled
I expect the unexpected
But I suggest you....
Keep your eyes wide open.
This world has many things left unspoken.
Mailan Dec 2012
Don't worry about me
My sorrow will be filled
with more pain tomorrow
So stop calling, your silly
games should be over now
I keep falling, but when
I'm done with you, my feet
should be able to reach the ground.

— The End —
