Your Eyeballs are like Diamonds - A Poem.

Your eyeballs are like diamonds;
they probably cost a lot.
And if I tried to steal 'em,
I'd most likely get caught.

But you know, I'd think it's worth it
if for just one day
I could stare into your eyeballs
and daydream the time away.

But well, without eyes you couldn't see
and I'd feel pretty bad
if I knew it was all because
I wanted something I don't have.

So I guess you can keep them eyeballs,
and I'll look but I won't touch.
Because without those big blue eyeballs
I don't think I'd love you as much.

Haha. Wow. I just...hahhahaah!!!!

My personal favorite is that "eyeballs" rests next to "declarations of love" in the labels.

You're just a touch strange, love. Just a touch.

It's a nice poem and a great blog. Did you try this variation? It evens the metre a bit: Your eyeballs are diamonds / as dear as they come / if i tried to steal them / i'd likely get caught... etc.

Check out my own literary attempts at http://metalabis-piscofisico.blogspot.com. Cheers!

when we are afraid the shadow comes to the light and we make lots of poems like this.
