Serendipity

I didn't go searching for them, I fell into your lovely lips

I want to drink up your beauty, in ten thousand tiny sips

I need to taste the thrilled confusion of a fleet of sinking ships

I do what I must to steal what I can of it, your beauty's not for sale.

I double over with the pleasure of it. This neverending bliss cannot fail.

I never had a chance after that first serendipitous kiss, you blessed me with.

You always make magnets of my eyes, and graceful dancers of my fingertips.

You are all I need to survive, I could thrive in any climate, nothing else matters, except

You there, beside me, your beauty always with me,

sparing sweet sips from your serendipitous lips.

This is the only thing that can quench my thirst.

Loveliness like yours, only comes along once in a long while.

To me you are the closest thing, to perfection I know.

Then again...what do I know?
