With eBay purchases and rented movies,
Concert tickets, home-cooked chili, and kisses
My gentle mistress always aims to please
But given my black moods, she often misses
Her failed efforts evoke frustrated tears
Choking on emotion, she asks me “What's wrong?”
I smooth her hair, do my best to soothe her fears
Urge her to be calm, confident, and strong
No cynic, she, no cruel manipulator
For her innocence, I love her more
Than the hardened women of these sunburned shores
The courtesans, concubines, porn stars, and whores
Her love is trembling, fretful, insecure
And is earnest, honest, and the more pure
