460. Poem by Jaden Knight

If I say that you have a beautiful mind
would you use it against me
plotting my failure at every opportunity
until I have fallen at last

If I say that I like your face
would you still look down on me
or could you be moved enough to raise me up
to look into mine and see

If I tell you that you have nice hands
would you remove them from around my neck
part of me has already been choked
with no certainty of any recovery

If I told you that I loved your eyes
would you open them wide for once
to take the time to see for yourself
how I truly felt about you
