As bright as stars in noir space, as shiny as the sun in dark galaxies,

No matter how hard one tries, they can’t unsee thy light

Infinite circle of light in a lighthouse, Resembles thine aroma and grace

Aromatic as a rose, Majestic as a rose, Infinite as a rose

How can one stare away in such grace, such pose

— — —

Staring and staring, holding hands over fire, time still dilutes

No matter how hard one tries, thy thought brightens one’s mind

An ordinary man as I, couldn’t figure the how of thy beauty in life

Newspaper, Television, Radio, All benevolent of thy medium

They know of grace, a presence of light, as shiny as thine eyes

— — —

Such sadness. Like night taking over the light, she cries in the dark

Forcing a diamond to hinder herself, brings a certain excruciating sadness

Such doings tears one in infinite pieces, tearing down one’s heart in pieces
