The Other Half

Folder: 
High School Poems

When the night first parted and the sun began to rise,
upon the stromy waters that are my soul,
I never would have guessed that you,
were the true other half to make me whole.
My heart was blind and looking in all the wrong places,
for that perfect someone I thought I had missed,
but to think that perfect someone,
belonged to lips that I never kissed.
You melted your way into my life,
now we are forever bound,
funny how I used to think,
your laugh was nothing but a sound.
Each day is now filling me with such joy,
and you have all the right stuff,
each day, I silently thank your parents,
for making my diamond in the rough.
Now when the sun peers out,
upon my watery soul,
no more storms, it is peaceful and calm,
for you are the other half that makes me whole.
