She saw words
in stars
And life had meaning
When she
followed her heart
Opened up for disaster
to strike
But the matches of protection
Were nothing alike
She saw poetry
in his eyes
And nothing ever looked
as sweet as his
laugh lines
But the flow of the pen
stopped short of madness
When she was born again
She saw lyrics
in every emotion
And all the tears and smiles
proved her devotion
But life had a way
of sneaking up on her
When she closed her eyes
Before looking
in every mirror
She saw love and pain
all at the same time
and she was hurt and happy
By every one of his rhymes
But nothing ever looked
as beautiful as his
piercing eyes
But the flow of the pen
stopped short of laughter
When she was born again
