If my eyes could contain your beauty.

If I could look and never look away
And all the beautiful words were thought
Within my brain
And all the seas and skies came to view in my mind, of all I had said and all that I knew
And still stand tall, awake and proud
Of all of the quiet things and all of the loud.
What would you be like stripped bare to the bone entranced by the world like a holy shroud.
Wrapped in leaf like the days of eden or robed like the gods of men.
And what would I say or what would I pray if I could contain you in my mind just for one day.
