Marvin Brato Sr - If Am Ugly...

You told me the reasons why you like me:

because I'm pretty

because I'm intelligent

because I'm honest

because I'm romantic



But what if I am ugly?

would you still like me?

Are your reasons be the same?

and could still say it to my face?





Ah, you hesitated!

can not answer me right away,

why, are you thinking of a reason

and still say l me another lie!



Love has no boundaries

nor exact reasons why

such is an abstract thing

materializes when acted upon



External beauty is just a stimulant

but can not measure if love is true

for lust can not last but an hour

but love once establish lingers on

even if I am ugly...
