'Would call you by name
But it’s all the same if I described your fame:
Your flaming tongue like the mid-day sun;
Your moonlit eyes; your heart’s beating drum;
Your satin skin; your lips the shape of love;
You are a star placed in heaven up above.
‘Would speak of you but your aura jades
My verbal energy so I’ll leave it up to this page.
Your courage, your passion, your unique fashion,
Your willingness to give when one’s askin’
Your unyielding vigor, your love for your life.
Bless the day that this star becomes my wife.
‘Would say three words but they wouldn’t compare
To the breath that you breathe when you take my air
Or your touch of rain that wets my emotion,
Or your Six-Flags mind that keeps me roller-coastin’,
Or your soul that’s an ocean wide and far,
Or that illustrious glow that make you a star.
‘Would call you by name but I think that would shame
Your whole existence to be a slave to something so plain.
You’re more than a name you’re the very essence of fun,
You’re the lover in my life; your heart beats like a drum.
You’re the truth, you’re the Earth I so deeply love.
You are a star placed in heaven up above.

Everyone is a star to me, so see the glow that I see in thee. Peace.
