i love the way you look at me

and the way you speak

how your words

fly away like birds

to form nests

in my soul

 

you convince me

of things i do not believe

whispering into my dreams

until all i can see

is another reality

where all that matters

is you and me

 

i could lie with you forever

gentle rhythms echo through the room

i am consumed

in the moment

in you.

 

i often wonder if i made you up

but i can see you

smell you, and feel so

you must be real

 

you are the object of my desire, 

the sole recipient of my affection

you are and forever will be, 

my perfection.
