You're the exact embodiment
of what love is meant,
Without a mere "like"
or "as" --of such,
My words. . .
be still at its merit.

The metaphor is You
--it's beyond!
That comparison is absolute,
not-of-as --a thing nor concepts,
not-that-like of anyone;
When I'm sure,
It shall be associated with certainty.

Oh logic will pardon me!
For what's within the artist's heart can't be objectified;
Words must be crafted
to display subtleness;
For, I couldn't be wiser to tell,
that "You're like a shining light",
when I mean,
"You are my shining light";
I beg not to fool myself saying,
"Those sparkling eyes
are enticing as of that stars
--I always look up at dream-night",
when I mean,
"You are that view".

I remain teachable,
heaven humbles me then
For the words I've chosen,
have called me
My words of metaphors
may tell certainties;
One shall not be associated,
Like a gold, or as a diamond,
by its own worth
All things have merits,
Life-artists just have to be exact
to tell:
that some arts are living
worth enough to classify,
of such certain state.
