PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

why do I care for you so very much?

Tell me , is it the paralyzation  of your ocean

filled eyes

the rich tones of your cropped dark hair

or is it the sound of your reverberating voice

as you regale yet another one of your very tall tales

of inner beauty, happiness and impossibly possible

things still to come our way

could it be that what makes you different is what makes

you so damned undeniably attractive to me?

you are younger than I but far from being just another

boy

or perhaps its the fact that our heights do not add up

to the usual standard of amount

just maybe that is where our otherwise unexplainable

chemistry lies

a few inches gone here

a few more added there and voila!

we have sparks, blessed, beautiful , sparks

and along side them waves an almost magic fan to fuel

the building flames along with two hearts that beat so

strongly proud

what wisdom falls beneath these carefully chosen words?

make me wise my dear to your world's ways

that cautious little voice in my head says

now is the time to make a move

yet still I stiffen silently at the very thought

your polite affections I do not wish to buy

I only want to be your confidant

well, maybe a little more than that if you don't mind

I would at least like to try!

care to join me my sweet darling you?

gawd, I can only hope that you will say yes!

yes! I do................
