Jealous

Cyrano de Bergerac would be jealous

Of what I have done to show my love.

Casanova would pale in envy

Of my plans and tricks to bring a smile

To your beautiful face.

Rumi would weep in joy

At the feelings captured

From a glance of your green eyes,

And Sappho would blush and flush

With the desires expressed

That you inspire my Muse.

And yet, like the Grecian marble

You are unmoved and cold.
