Grace
From what have you materialized, oh sweet angel of love
No bird in the sky could match your grace, not even a dove.
In the distance, the aura of your beauty seizes my heart
I could search the globe and find no comparable art.
How will I speak to thee that has turned my world upside down?
In the midst of you, even a God would feel as a clown.
Before the sweet sound of your voice ever touched my ears
I knew yours was of an angel, and would shatter my fears.
If the conversation were dry, your beauty would persist
But to my delight, your vibrations leave me breathless.
Your intellect is unquestionable, and your way is intoxicating
Refreshing, like a cool winter wind one would experience ice skating.
Bubbling in my heart, a love that has lain dormant spreads through my being
Aphrodite herself would be jealous, afraid to confirm what she’s seen.
How can one capture your heart in the way you’ve stolen mine?
I would walk to the ends of the earth for it, disregarding time.
With no effort on your part, I feel I have fallen into a cloud of bliss
I ask the lord almighty, what have I done to deserve this?
Oh to feel your lips pressed against mine, would heaven be reached
I would feel unable to move, like a whale that’s been beached.
The ease of your manner leaves me uneasy of my own
My insecurities can only be vanquished through poem.
Of one thing I’m sure, you, I could never mistreat
But how could I be the prince you long to meet?
I am just I, no more, no less
To be in your presence, oh I feel I am blessed.
If love harkens, surely no greater example could be
Of a love that has stirred my soul to the essence of me.
