Van Morrison wrote a song
about me.
And yet the beachy, surf-rock
guitar and loving lyrics
couldn't convince me
that I
was
beautiful.
I envied those with light eyes
Blue,
Green, or
Grey
I saw mine as being
Flat,
Dull, and
Dark
And found yet another reason
to wish that I was
someone
else.
But then you came along.
You saw more than just...
brown.
You looked at me with those
bright baby blues
those shining windows
of a clear summer day
You told me they were brown...
but also
Hazel
and
Auburn
in the sunlight
with specks of gold
"Big love crumbs"
as one of our favorites
would say
I always wanted to be
someone else.
Now, I dread the thought
of being anyone
but yours.
And now, I hear
Van Morrison singing
for the
First Time.
