You

You are
The sun,
The moon,
The stars.
You are
The cause
For a never-ending string
Of cliché.

You are
My heart,
My soul,
My life.
My
Reason for living.
You are
The wind beneath my wings.

Your eyes
Are
Two pools
That I fall into
And never climb out of.
Your voice
Sounds
Like flowing honey
Running pure
Through the rivers of my mind.

Your hair —
Silken.
Your touch —
Electric
On my skin
Making hair stand on end.
Your breath —
Sweet
Like a rose
On a summer’s day
Rolling salaciously
Across my face
As our lips join
In that most tender of embraces.

You move
With the grace
Of a thousand gazelles.
You carry
Yourself
With the confidence
Of one who knows
That
They are the shit.
You play
The game with a skill
That is only rumored of
And rarely seen in practice.

You want
Us to be.

Yet I
Am left alone
As
There is a time and place for all
And this
isn't either one.
