If perfection took a human form,
I'm sure it would be his.
With lips like nitrous oxide,
leave me crazy when we kiss.
An embrace just like a freight train,
knock the breath right out of me
and keep me always wanting more,
his touch a neccesity.
And if the stars could melt down-
fall, graceful, from the skies-
made golden in the sunlight, those stars would be his eyes.

The author's comments:
It's cliche to the point of being ridiculous, but sometimes the best words are recycled ones. Enjoy.

wow, i've been looking on this website at the poems that come after mine and some of the ones that my friends wrote. and you know what? this is the best one i've heard yet. i'm giving this 5 stars and im thinking about adding it to my favs. it rhymed w/o sounding corny and i didn't think it was cliche, it described how you feel and i thought it was very clever. loved it!! keep writing and check out my poems too!!
