you look at me while my face is turned away
or at least that’s what my friends say

you watch me when I laugh till I cry
it’s as if you see beauty in me with those eyes

you smile as you watch me dance to sounds
as if I’m the one you finally found

you even laugh at my jokes
it gives my heart a love poke

we talked with love in our face, eyes, and even mind
when will we admit we can’t keep it behind

all of me wants you
i know you want me too

You asked me why I like you
But I didn’t want to tell
Some of my reasons are cheesy...
But here is why I fell

I love the way your lips curve
When I make you smile
It makes me want to pull you close
And kiss you for awhile

I love the way your eyes twinkle
When you talk about things you love
I truely believe
You are a gift from above

I love that you are compassionate
You have such a big heart
That was the first thing I noticed
Right from the start

I love the way it feels
When you hold me tight
I finally feel safe
Like I could sleep through the night

I love that you don’t judge me
For my less than perfect self
That is more attractive
Than any amount of wealth

There are so many more reasons
But I’ll start with just this few
Maybe someday
I’ll give this poem to you

:)

i told myself i would
not wait for love

but what am i to do
if he is standing
right here
beside
me?
