Reluctant Beauty
She is blind
So let me be her eyes
Golden brown
Staring at her own reflection
Beauty beyond comprehension
She is deaf
So let me be her ears
Listening close
As I whisper to her
My love
She is mute
So let me be her lips
Sweet
Soft
Full of laughter
She is perfection
Shy and unknowing
I am her praise
Her convincing
She is my want
So I let her be my fulfillment
My need
My world
