You say over and over again
that You're ugly, un-pretty,
unlovable,
and that is only because
You do not know what i see in You,
love
You say over and over again
that You're not worth much
but Darling, You're worth more
than the rarest gems in the world
tripled, to me
You say that there is nothing
special about those deep brown
eyes that i consider Your holy gift
They may not shine like stars do, but
They are that enchanting darkness
without which the stars could not
burn so bright
You'll never know
what love i see in You
You'll never know
You'll never know
how unworthy i am
to behold such an Angel
as You
