For Austin

By Debanjali

I tempt to comb ‘em back-

his majestic hair

falling off onto his eyes

sparkling with a hint of mystery

What it takes to

fall for his smile-

that's brighter than

a zillion brilliant stars

And his voice

is like an everknown melody,

so familiar-

ringing in my veins

But... you know,

he’s someone else’s love-

someone fair and pretty,

sweet and lovely.

Her majestic hair tempts him to comb ‘em back,

her eyes sparkle the same as his,

smile’s as bright as his

and voice as melodious as his.
