You are so established,
no matter where You
just happen to stand.
You are soft-spoken intoxication
and undeniably
beautiful.
You are caged and forced tame,
but i know You're still wild inside.
Your face is defined,
Your hair golden,
and Your muscles are strong
yet understated.
-and those laser blue eyes, baby.
You have this amazing habit
of looking into a person when he speaks,
as if every single word coming from
that person's mouth is
oh-so-fascinating
(i love to talk to You).
You have earned the right to
that trace of arrogance
You wear so casually
and so blatantly.
Your royally tripping voice
when You sing
makes all the girls scream.
i know You
but i am a stranger to You
lovely tigerboy.
