Marble Sculpture
-To Tom Hiddleston
I kneel in awe of you, marble sculpture,
Like a mortal shamefully gazing at a god divine;
Two emeralds call to me and I lose all composure,
My heart burns, yearning for you to be mine.
Oh, why hide such godly body beneath armour?
Every inch of your marble-like skin is flawless.
Look but cannot touch I am left piteously breathless
By your glory, perfection, divinity, and glamour.
But do you know that what I crave most is your heart?
The glorious diamond - your purest, truest, inmost part
Stripped of sculpted marble and all gaudy disguise,
Show me the truth of your human self or I will collapse!
For perfection is the lovely veil of imperfection,
And imperfection is the birth of O sweet passion!
A/N: I wrote this a while back right after I watched The Deep Blue Sea, and gods... You know why. :D When you see a perfect mortal like that, you have no choice but to...give in to sweet, dreamy passion!
