I see you and feel happy
I hear you and my spirit soars
I watch you and am lustful
I touch you and it’s all that exists
I do not love you
I worship you somewhere inside me

As I stand close, I am holding a star
The brightness, heat, gravity
The violent, inexplicable beauty
My skin burnt and scorched down to the soul

And you probably think I’m after a fling
And ain’t that ******* typical.

I don’t want just a glance.
I want the kind of gaze
that stays,
like I’m a piece of art,
not just a face.

A gaze that falls quiet when they see me,
like I just took their breath away.

I don’t want someone
who only thinks I’m pretty.

I want someone
who sees the messy parts,
the quiet overthinking,
and still thinks
“God, she’s beautiful.”

I want someone
who notices the curve of my smile,
the light in my eyes,
the way my hair falls
when I’m not even trying,
and adores it.

Every inch. Every angle.

I want someone
who doesn’t just compliment me,
but worships the floor I walk on.

Someone who looks at me
like they’ve never seen anything
so beautiful.

Because I’m tired
of being “nice to look at”
but never truly seen.

I want to be admired
out loud.

Not just for who I am inside,
but for how I carry beauty
without even knowing it.

I want someone
who adores me like I’m rare.

Because I am.

I want nothing more than to touch your heart, but I will never reach for it.

Instead I will build it a sanctuary.
Sacred grounds where none else shall enter - a home of its own.
Where ivy climbs columns, reaching toward the fountains overflowing with love - radiating with purity, honesty and compassion.
With a place to lay your head, and let all worries slip away, to be carried off by songbirds which sing your favorite tune.
Where every plant as you pass by, has flowers dramatically bloom.
For this space, as well as I, would do anything, for you.
In this world my ADORATION for her is extreme,
BEGUILING and CHARISMATIC she is in my dream.
DAUNTLESS she stands, ENCHANTING with grace,
Wondrously FABULOUS in her presence.

GORGEOUS she is for I have a special place,
In my HEART, her image I will forever trace.
She is an INSPIRATION in my JOYFUL rhyme
Her KINDNESS is music in time.

LUCIOUS in spirit, MAGNIFICENT in sight,
Her NOBILITY shines during my darkest nights.
An OASIS of comfort and she is my PRECIOUS,
a queen of my world, with pure RADIANCE.

SAGACIOUS in her wisdom and in care, she is TENDER,
UNIQUE in all ways, VIVACIOUS in her spirit.
She is my only WONDER and XENODOCHIAL IN HEART,
For her alone I YEARN as she ignites my ZEAL.

In every moment, I want her feel,
She is the core of my love, a real deal.
All compilation of her virtues align,
As she is my A - Z and forever will remain.

You’ve rattled my world and broken me open
Adoration and obsession flowing red hot like magma
The end of the world for my sensibilities

Dreams of us shift tectonically in my mind
making tremors in my soul
And shaking me down on the page.

And in the vast sea of my thoughts
You make tidal waves
And raise islands, unmovable

I don't know who Richter is
But on any scale I know
You’re a 10

My heart is packed so full of love for you
  I dreamed I exploded, like aerosol cans sometimes do

I blew with such force that my bones became shrapnel
And leveled the town, except the small chapel

My teeth flew like bullets, I didn't know what was happening
They killed everyone in sight, except for the chaplain

And then, thanks to him, we were happily wed
Even though, at the time, I think we were both dead
Jeffrey Franken, Frankenhooker, dir. Frank Henelotter, 1990

I have an overwhelming fondness for tales of a love so potent, even death cannot dissolve it.

“What is the reason, I wonder?
What could possibly be the cause?
For her to evoke such a response of antiphon?
I find myself forgetting. Failing to recall
what it was like to ever be without her.
Finding all other plans to be forgone,
in favor of chasing after her.
As she sings her feather dusted song,
The entirety of whole world
seems to be strung along.
What a perplexing existence,
yet I cannot help but to be enthralled.
Perchance this is what it means to be swept away at the whims of the squall.”

golden rays of sun, kiss Your soft cheeks.
and clovers sprout in the path You followed.
Your pomegranate lips softly hum, melodic a
as a nightingale's song. I ache for a taste.
Oh my persephone, bring on the season,
where hyacinth blooms and morning dew
sleeps soundly on fields. Your lovely soul,
as pure as springs beauty. for star-shine
sparkles in your eyes. lighting up all of
earth, all of My life along with it. gentle
hand, intertwined. bless me with Your
glace. baptize me, pomegranate kiss.
planting seeds inside, My heart. budding,
growing. my Love for You, flourishes like a
garden. forever abundant.
