How you long to hear them and how I long to say
How do these words within me always slowly slip away
I try to speak my feelings as simply as can be
But simple isn't easy when you're seeing all I see
How you truly are amazing, the goddess of my dreams
Even if you think I've stretched your beauty to extremes
I assure you in my eyes your as perfect as you sound
Somehow with every perfect piece you manage to astound
The things I've mentioned here are only just the start
I wish to write two thousand lines for each and every part
Your eyes are ever stunning, you must hear that all the time
But I can not leave unsaid that they always look sublime
And the way they make me wander as they pierce me with a look
How can they see right through me, read me like an open book
They can melt me like a candle held against a glowing flame
'Cause the fire that's inside them is to passionate to tame
They make me want to cry with you when they swell and tear
They make me want to listen, all your words sound crystal clear
Your eyes have always told me all the secrets you can't say
How they lift me from my darkness, how they make me want to stay
And if you don't know now what I see within your eyes
Ask me to continue and I hope that you'll realize
That the only things I see are what make you who you are
But understand I know that you're much more than eyes by far
These lips your lips have dared to touch and how I loved that night
How I hoped it wouldn't fade with the dawning of the light
How they look so soft and supple, how I want them to explore
I promise not to stop them, never leave them wanting more
How I wish that you would use them to tell me all you know
Won't you want to let them guide you, tell me where my hands should go
When you leave your lips to tremble How I want to make them stop
Take the poison from your mouth, I would savor every drop
Suffer from this lingered pain just to save them from the taste
Of a single fallen tear that your eyes have long embraced
If only lips could tell you how wondrous yours are
Then a kiss would speak great volumes, which is better by far
Then all these simple words I say to tell you how I feel
And in between your fantasies you'll now that I am real
Your hair is always vibrant, it's color's quite unique
I tried to capture it in paint and failed after a week
How you sometimes hide behind it in loving apprehension
And how you seem upset but really only want attention
When the wind gets so annoying and your hair blows in your face
And you get a bit frustrated how I'd move with subtle grace
How I long to push aside, tuck your hair behind your ear
Run my fingers down your cheek, lift your chin till we are near
Pull your essence ever closer, breath you in with one small sigh
Take soft kisses from your lips and make your worries swiftly die
How can you be so silly not to understand my heart
Loving you to me is the simplest form of art
And this time when I paint you no pigment will suffice
I'll color your hair with golden words I hope you think are nice
How things that are so simple are beautiful to you
Lying on my back, I'm learning things I never knew
Gazing up into the sky, forming pictures with the stars
As you take me up to Jupiter, past mercury and mars
You always seem to lift me up, take me away from here
Like a movie or a dream I'm on a cloud when you are near
How you want to walk with me to view your favorite place
As I stair so wantonly at your moonlit face
And you show me what it is you see in every aging tomb
I can not help but let your words puncture and consume
Every simple thought and feeling that I've ever had
Is in a moment lost forever and I'm sort of glad
I'll tell you that I love you 'til your tired of that phrase
And then I'll simply say it a million different ways
How you always seem so right, even when you may be wrong
I'll always trust the things you say, for however long
How when I feel alone and in grave need of a friend
You are always with me even if I must pretend
And how on every mopey day you push away my tears
Even though you don't enjoy it, you take away my fears
How whenever I am blue, a sad and crying mess
You, unlike the rest of them, refuse to love me less
And even though you may be scared when I scream and run
You're strong enough to never yield, second best to none
When I need a shoulder or an ear to understand
A lifter of my spirits or a holder of my hand
You are always there for me no matter what the cost
And I know that when you're with me I never will be lost
How you get so angry when I hate the things you do
Please don't take offense to it, I really do love you
But I have to say I hate them, though It's simply just a ploy
'Cause even things that I should hate fill me up with joy
And if I would admit this, even to myself
My ship of safety in a bottle lying on the shelf
Would shatter to the ground, sink into the heart of me
Then I'd be falling further, drowning deeper in your sea
How I love the way you always like to look your very best
And how I love the way you laugh, poke fun at me and jest
Even if I push away, I really need you near
And how I love how every word is always so sincere
So never shall you wonder, for I hate no part of you
And always shall you know, I love everything you do.
You ask me why I love you and with this I'll tell you how
It's something really simple that I've know for some time now
The day we met and you saved me I think that it was fate
But I predicted then and there the thing that makes you great
And I was told by your own voice the burden that you bare
Your heart is big enough to love and large enough to care
For all the sad pathetic fools who don't deserve a chance
'Cause you find something more in them with each and every glance
How you always care no matter how much you may hurt
It's really quit frustrating when they're treating you like dirt
And I wish that I could save you from the pain that you endure
But I should know that I can't help, there's really not a cure
Every thing can fade in time but true love will never flee
And every time I'm wanting you, I hope your wanting me
I just read the poem again and I still love it. Your use of words is seriously amazing, but I did catch a few editorial errors. Never stop writing!
YOU ARE AMAZING!!! WONDERFUL, this was sooo wonderful!!! Great job!
