And like a Siren enchanted me with your voice.
Lilacs sashay across my mind,

Your auburn hair takes my breath away;
I could not foresee beauty so fine.
Your slender hips and lips ready to kiss,
Are nothing less than Divine.
Like a flower just starting to bloom,
Your demure demeanor makes me smile,
Oh, how I wish to see you soon:
To hold you for a long while.
To stare into the eyes of the Sun,
A modern Icarus in the making.
But instead of falling into the sea,
I'd fall into your arms no mistaking.
