The Ways I Want You
As a friend with a calming voice,
and a smile that shines through to my soul,
Eyes that find what I've lost,
and a hand that puts everything back into place.
As an intellectual searching, yet complete,
Knowing all that I don't, but willing to share,
With a mind like a distant galaxy,
Mysterious and untouchable, yet somehow reassuring.
As a partner standing by my side,
Upon ground as firm as our embrace,
Fortified by our unity,
Without fear of what tomorrow holds.
As a woman with the beauty of a goddess,
and a laugh that twists my face into a smile,
A charm possessed by no other,
but that possesses everyone.
As a lover with the touch of silken thread,
A glance that entices my dreams,
and a tongue that whispers,
"The ways I want you..."
At first, I thought I would pick the best stanza and work from there, but this poem is to perfectly constructed that it is impossible to pick a favorite stanza. I was much impressed, however, in the comparison of her mind to a distant galaxy. This poem is a great achievement, and I wish I had been as talented as you are when I was your age.
Love this one for reasons I'm sure many can relate to.
=O) Stirring and wistful. Very well written. Will be
back to read more, so hurry and get more up already.
