No False Comparisons

My mistress eyes are nothing like the sun

Yet you expect me to say cheesy love lines

You want me to say

that her lips are more red than coral

(They’re not)

That she is white as snow

(fool her breasts are grayish brown)

That she has rosy cheeks

(She ain’t no Disney princess

Or some Barbie doll)

But I love her

I love to hear her speak

I won’t say she’s a goddess

(I ain’t never seen one)

But I love her

I see our love as rare

I won’t give you misconceptions

with false comparisons

But I love her
