You Know Why?-Song

 You Know Why?

The roses were angry,

Other flowers were angry too.

The garden was fuming—

You know why:

The beauty took the garden by storm.

That beauty is mine,

The one for whom my eyes stay wide open.

 

The curved, large statues were angry,

Other statues were angry too.

The museum was firing—

You know why:

The beauty burned the museum with her hips.

That curvy beauty is mine,

The one for whom my hands wait.

 

The ace poets were angry,

And so were the newbies.

The hall was filled with silence—

You know why:

The beauty blew through the hall with a smile,

More than a poem,

She was a poem for me,

The one for whom my ears are waiting.

 

The beauty pageants stopped walking the ramp,

So did the first-time ramp walkers.

The judges were confused—

You know why:

The beauty just walked a few steps,

She is the role model for models.

That walk was a dance for me,

The one for whom my legs wait to dance.

 

The celestial bodies disappeared from the sky,

Including the stars.

The moon and stars called an emergency meeting—

You know why:

The beauty just showed up on Earth.

That was a sign of good times for me,

The one for whom I don’t mind waiting a long time.

 

The gardens,

The museums,

The poets,

The beauty pageants,

The sky—

They all worry when we show up, move, smile, walk,

And come around the Earth.

 

She is the woman I admire, love, and will live to die for.

She is my beauty; in her absence, the beast appears in me.
