Years of Descriptions

Your hair is the gold of sun-soaked straw,
and also seems as thick and straight.
Strange, that it would stay in place, to frame your face.
Your eyes are so watery blue I fear that they will run,
Perhaps come at me in waves.
You have the skin of an apple, colored by months of sun,
and industriously smoothed, waxed, en masse.
Your lips, too, are appleish, especially in their redness,
and also their heart shape, set off from your face
With what looks like a drawn line, remarkably defined.
You are years of descriptions of beauty, enlightened,
and you are frightening.
