you are
No, your beauty is not
what launched a thousand ships
but you are
just what put the wind in
my meager sails
There is no escape from
the fact that you
are the most beautiful you
that ever was and ever shall be
and I am proud of myself
for having known I should
adore you more properly
than a man has a right to
and I'll make no excuses
for loving you so unabashedly
because a love this intense
burned right through a million reasons why
it could ever be denied
