Dónall Dempsey - Better Than I

2014-11-07 0

I gave you
my grey silk suit

because you
wore it

...better than I.

Pale pink silk shirt
immaculate cufflinks
glinting in candle light
a devil may care look
in your eye.

Dressed to perfection.

Each movement
spec-tac-u-lar!

And here
have this tie

it
suits
you

...better than I.

I can only
look on

in naked
admiration

as you
dressed in my male
attire

yet still looking so

...so stunningly
female.

Your hair
pinned & hidden

under the tilt
of my hat

falls now
again

into the deliciousness
of crisp golden curls.

You
so much
a woman

laughing
at yourself

in your disguise

'Ah a man's a man
for a' that! '

I lost
now

in your luciousness
sigh

noone
could love you

...better than I.
