I did not know you
When you were young and let your hair down
Freeing it to blow wildly about in the southern wind
Looking out over the sapphire sea
Your lips were not red even then
Pink and lush they bloomed
The same color as the tips of those mounds bourgeoning on your chest
I was in college, you fifteen
Had I met you I would have been arrested for my thoughts
You dwelled on the periphery of my mind
Vanishing every time I turned
When summer came
I stopped looking
Assured you were a phantom
Setting my heart on things concrete and barren
Asylum in a verdant satin jail
Now as the autumn leaves turn their colors
Your hair is elegantly short and stylish
Luscious lips still moist and pink
More of a woman than any could understand
I have said “I love you” a thousand times since the minstrel played
He was wrong
I can still draw fire within those beautiful eyes
It will live there always
