a match made in heaven

high cheeks
nose thin and longish
almost pointed

a mouth
delicate with
teeth playfully dancing
behind a
quick wry smile
smart and beguiling

wide eyes
of a friendly brown
shy yet
direct
softly piercing

surely

some
undeserving
profane
bastard

who will
never understand
the music
of her laugh

or the agony
of her
departing

has her

i pray he finds out
before
it's too late
