My Selfish Intent

Take a flower of any kind

Encrust its delicate petals with rubies once held as sacred as an ocean's sapphire

Then embed its stem with divinity’s pearl like essence

While having its seeds bloom unto the world emerald color coded diamonds

And you will see 
An eyeful that mimics her eminence come to appear

...To have such a being to live among us

Will always leave me dumbfounded to God’s unknown plan

One that until I saw her care little to nothing of

Perhaps it's possible,

She is the only view of paradise that this sinner will ever be allowed to see

Considering that, I do not revere myself as a saint

But, if she is what heaven is made of… surely I can repent of my shameful ways

Judge me not for my selfish intent

Because, maybe she is the virtuous spirit, heaven sent to save my gravely grieving soul

For even so, that I may be the devil that I am

I would not dare impede sacrilege towards this divine woman

But, I would sin a thousand times over if only to preserve her holiness

And without one moment of regret

Would I spend an eternity in hell counting the endless stars

Connecting them to outline her beloved face

Therefore, of my mind serenity would be just
 
Leaving the torment that I had confounded myself to...so..blissfully irrelevant

Thus, Take to my heart

The wonders of the universe and of those that are parallel

There alone would stand this gentle cosmic creature

That of the night sky the image of ten thousand stars left crafted into perfection
