How do you determine the worth of a man?

Is it measured in accordance with the dollars he's made,
The places he's been,
Or in the beds he's laid?

Does it correllate with the amounts of shoes he possesses,
The cars he drives,
Or the clothes in which he dresses?


To society these things may amount to much
But his worth is measured by the amounts of hearts that he's managed to touch

The people he's helped up when fallen down
The amount of smiles he's been able to transpire from a frown

A man's worth isn't a material thing,
It's an outward manifestation of the amount of joy that he brings

Here I sit
In range of admiration
Your skin immaculately velvet
Your hair messily tasseled
Your gravity seizes my attention
My distraction

I want to be close to you
The warmth your body exudes
The rhythmic rise and fall of your chest
Your beating heart near to mine
My north star

But here I am
There you are
The distance so mere
Yet it feels like a universe
My loneliness

You always claim to lack strength
You think you can't bear the burden of pressure
You say you're not as bright as the darkness that surrounds you
But what you fail to realize
Is that you won my affection
I can see within you the sturdiness of a goliath
The will of a warrior
The grace of a dove
You are elegance
My precious diamond

Lustrous Brightness
Blinding the darkness
I am your saving grace

As my whispers dance over your ear
Your breathing deepens even slows
My hands bend along a river
Love the way your body flows
They say a picture's worth a thousand words
To me that statement still holds true
You're more like a dictionary
Even then I'd read you through and through
You've become my favorite book
I can't stand to put you down
Maybe more like my favorite sport
Always ready for another round

Gonna have a little fun
So let's play a little game
Gone put this scene on rerun
As the neighbours learn my name
We set into a steady rhythm
Your chest motions up and down
Let me consume you like an ocean
In this lovin' you can drown
