The eyes that watched people die
The bare arms that manned battleships
The legs that walked a thousand miles
The heart that beats with vigor for one

The face that launched a thousand ships

The mind that devises ten thousand plans
The wit that confuses men of fame
The sarcasm that drowns the pain
The fierceness that breaks the vibranium chain

The face that launched a thousand ships

A token for her name
A coupon for her fame
A word for her  pain
A comment for her gain

The face that launched a thousand ships

Killed her sanity
To salvage her dignity
Faked her content
Disguised her grunts

The face that launched a thousand ships

A dime for her thoughts made me the richest person in the world
A star for her accomplishments brought the universe to my abode
A ***** for her happiness, left me uninjured

The face that launched a thousand ships
