Her eyes shine like the stars in the night
but her face holds secrets as vast as the skies.
Her ears can hear songs unlike other music
sweet and guttural, heart-pounding and breathtaking.
But her body moves away as swiftly as the wind.
Her hair whips like shining tendrils of warm sunlight
and her own shadow dances behind her in a never-ending parade.
She chases after her true self,
but is always running from her other half
Her skin is pale as the dawn's first light
and as dark and flawless as the perfect night
Her lips whisper words of an unsung lullaby
of roses redder than her lips and oceans far greener than her eyes.
She is filled with endless dreams of beauty and innocence
and she sweeps across the hearts of the lonely and oppressed.
