Not the Poets Way

I could say . . .
Your eyes shine like the brightest stars in the universe
Pearls become pale before your eyes

Sapphires envy your sublime beauty
The iris of your eyes exceed the glow of all rubies in paradise,
Or I could say the truth . . .
Your brown eyes reflect the sadness of my soul.

I could say . . .
Your love transcends all of God's creations
Your love incinerates the existence of other women
Your love will remain forever chained to my heart,
Or I could say the truth . . .
I'm lost without your love, please stay.

I could say . . . .
My heart beats to the rhythm of your enchanted melody
My beating heart would stop at a snap of your fingers
My heart is at your disposal waiting for your proposal,
Or I could say the truth . . .
My heart begs for your compassion, please don't go.

I could say . . .
I'd give all the diamonds in the world for a glance from your eyes
I would commit suicide if my love you decline
I could say all the fancy words poets use . . . 'dictionary words',
Or I could say the truth . . .
My life would be miserable without your heart loving mine,
So, please don't leave . . . please.
