I am not a man

That foolishly falls in love

But for you , Lauren Owens,

I shall fall

Only to ignorantly rise.

Your eyes , Lauren Owens,

Illuminates the night

When my shadows overpower me

and my fears come to life,

but I always wonder

what truth does your eyes conceal?

Your laughter , Lauren Owens,

Returned obviated joy to my heart

When depression slowly crept in,

But I always wonder

what sorrow does your smile cover-up

Your body , Lauren Owens,

No gods would dare deny

Is not of earthly standard

And has overcome whatever hell

Time threw it in,

But I always wonder

What pain did your body endure?

Your beauty , Lauren Owens,

Reminds me of raging oceans,

Dangerous and mysterious

Luring me into uncharted waters,

But I always wonder

What monsters lurk beneath the surface?

I am a man

That foolishly fell in love

With you , Lauren Owens,

And I have risen

Only to ignorantly fall once more...
