My Mistress
By David Taehee Lee
The first time I met your eyes
My heart skipped a beat
For such majestic beauty, those pearls
Caught up in mystic heat
But troubled I am in afoul
For know not thy intention
And hate to hurt innocent a soul
Pure a crystal, noble a scion
And poor and ignoble my birth
Dare not tamper thy high and pure
Cruel world forbidden my mirth
Clash of white and the ordure
But star of miracle shall I awake
And transcended love shall I make.
