Green eyes,
sunlight shines through
painting a ruby smile on your face.
Your hair frames your face,
Delicate as a winter rose.

Your gaze far away,
Daydreaming of the California sun.
Your voice like a piano, soft.
You play my feelings like a guitar.


When you cry, it can be like
Rain in Paris, gentle,
Or summer storms.
Fast and furious,
at the emotion you show.

You see, I love you.
So you are
Like a painting.
Always beautiful,
My Flaming June.

Based on the song, "Am I Pretty" by The Maine. Good song, listen to it.
