My Only One

There she was, my queen standing lackadaisically at the horizon as the sun set
Her face gleamed and glowed like the fireflies at night.
Her smile that caught my eyes was as curvaceous as her body.
She was a true piece of art as the sculptor curved her to perfection.
Alas! My search and quest had come to an end and I was on m debut of my paradise
I feel like I should hide her from the face of the earth for from this point on, I declare myself selfish.
Or perhaps I should relocate everyone to another planet so that it’s only me and her in all the continents of the earth.
Surely if you haven’t seen her don’t even dream of it because I and only I hold the visa to heart.
I only have one wish that I could become an octopus so that I could hold all of her body with my 8 arms.
Be an ogre so that I could watch her with my multi-eyes.
Be a kangaroo and hide her in my porch always
Be an eagle so that I can build our nest at the peak of the tallest mountain.
For the first time in my life I’ve seen the true definition of beauty that no dictionary, no scholar and no theory can match to.
