May 2016
I envy every drop of rain that dribbles down her skin
As I yearn for just a touch,
And the lipstick she puts on each day–
It's closer to her lips than mine had ever been.

Auroras appeared in the sky when she was conceived—  
I worship the day she was brought out of the womb.
I supplicated to the heavens for bestowing the earth with an angel;
The only moment I fell on my knees to pray—
Her beauty led me astray
Because I stared more than I was told to in the holy book
I could not resist taking a second look .
Astaghfirullah(God forgive me) I muttered as I looked her way
Guilt was overwhelming, but eclipsed by her beauty.
Still I gaze at her luscious full lips that made me drool like a new born
And skin that looked as if it had never seen a day in the blistering sun.
The concrete shed tears of joy as she stomped on them
Withered flowers blossomed into radiant roses as she walked past them.
Her voice was the definition of euphoria.
Wrote this prom for a beaut :)
