Aussie Idol - (To E)
by Benji

(i)
Sunlight dances on her golden brown eyes,
kisses her lips,
laces her hair.

Sun kissed,
her beauty is undefinable,
her grace knows no bounds.

(ii)
Give it some time, I mumbled to myself.
A few weeks, perhaps,
and this feeling should pass,
it ought to pass...

She only appears to exist within my dreams
and so it must, after all, be lust.
and yet...
and yet.

She is successful in preventing me
from carrying on with another.
and so I continue to search for her,
wondering where I had seen her,
wondering where I might see her.
