For Thou Are Women

I am a male who believes strongly in intimacy
And I treat women with the upmost of respect
I would never treat them, like a notch upon the post of my bed
See when I look upon a woman’s eyes, I look for substance and depth
Not the shape of their slender thighs

What beauty is held within their lovely, gentle skin
Your eyes reflect with pure desires from deep within
Heavenly angel quill thy fire deep therein
To utter feelings from deep within

What beauty holds, a candle to your loving flame
Hallowed be thy gentle name
For thou are women, loving light
Hold the stars upon this night

Thou are lovelier then the dawn
Heavenly creatures in earthly swarm
Honourable thoughts I have of thee
Hollowed how thy heart can be

Earthly beauty, heavenly flame
Thou are lovelier then love, in name
Some men might think of them as an earthly treat
But a woman’s heart has substance, and that to me is really neat
