Beauty and the beast

Hath the world known beauty, it would recognise her

 

Discovering what many die longing for

 

Hath love and kindness but a face, its lips would be succulent with sweet nectar

 

Its skin would be as soft as the velvet robes of persian kings

 

And eyes as bright as the northern stars that point to my heart

 

Hath beauty known the beast

 

She would have known i exist.
