Sonnet of My Shinny Comet

“Beauty in the comet
I may die for your beauty just as a poet
Sonnet of my shiny comet,

You shake my legs by your bright eyes
That shines like diamonds falling down your thighs
Leaving me smiling like a gambler meditating the dice,

Your skin is akin to that of a toddler
Are you really older?
Or you just grow faster?
My comet, you just look young and sober,

I guess I’ll collapse 
when I meet your soft lips
Will I even hold those romantic hips?
I just can’t draw you on my poor ribs
Because I don’t stay within the tips.”
