She certainly looks plain. 
Really nothing special. 
Her hair is normal
A face worn to middle age
Body thin, not curvaceous 

She has an ordinary job
Ordinary clothes  
A set of ordinary friends
She is really nothing special. 
Yet, she catches my eye

She is kind, compassionate
Sweet, and intelligent
So, very funny, warm and loving
A woman who loves to give
Even to me, her friend

I always chose 
Beautiful, young women
Who caused me pain
Temptresses 
Who fear commitment. 

The best woman 
I ever had was  
Beautiful and loving 
But too afraid of being hurt
To let me give her all my love

If I ever have to choose again
I will look below the surface 
I learned the hard way that 
Beautiful women 
Who are afraid of intimacy 

And keep you at a distance 
Hurt you
Before you can hurt them 
And are really 
Nothing special.
