Analysis of To my black beauty
True beauty encompasses the heart
Which naked eyes can't see,
But I hear the heart beat,
beating in unison with my heart.
I know the person, not the image of the person
My knowledge is a garisson
That secures my heart
Which will not turn to left or right
True beauty has no superlatives
So my heart knows
Let those upset in the stomach vomit!
Hats off to my black diamond
Whose intrinsic value
Expert miners value.
