How Beautiful...

Eye of the beholder blah blah blah

“How Beautiful…”

 

How beautiful is a rose

Whose thorns prick you,

Drawing blood?

 

How lovely is a song of amour

After the last chord is strummed

By calloused hands?

 

How eternal is a kiss

Either stolen or given

Without breadth?

 

How beautiful am I

To eyes such as yours?

This is another polished-off old one.
