I am beautiful just because you said so Even as I told you I am fat And uninspired and disenchanted with myself as of late You replied that I am beautiful And you said it with such passion and vision And certainty That even I was convinced. It is 70 degrees here on the eve of the first of December And it feels alien to listen to Christmas carols As I drive through the city with my convertible top down And make plans with you to go out for those great martinis in the Highlands And head over to Atlantic Station to see the fake snow they throw from the rooftops On Saturday nights. But it is indeed Christmastime and I am in love (although I haven’t had the courage to let you know) and it seems that every day is Springtime in December to me. |
