"Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds ways to kneel and kiss the ground." - Rumi


I catch my breath
And cherish the laughter
As we slowly embrace
Forever after

When I look down at you
I know one thing is certain
You're all that I want
And I'll say to you, then

When we embrace
I'll look into your eyes
And find that everything I missed
Is coming together now in my arms

You're my starry night sky
And my beautiful sunrise
More mysterious than the moon
I want to tell you
Just these three little words
Yeah, these silly little words
That don't mean a thing
Without knowing that it's true
But I know
This is true

Do 'ya know, girl
The things I'm thinkin' in my head?
Well I'll tell you
My thoughts revolve around 'n around 'n around

That moment
When I held tight
At the sunset
And when we kissed we knew it was right

'Cause you're my starry night sky
And my beautiful sunrise
More mysterious than the moon
I want to tell you
Just these three little words
Yeah, these silly little words
That don't mean a thing
Without knowing that it's true
But I know
Yeah, I know

You're all that I want, girl
And every night is our night
'Cause I know
I love you

Yep, they're all about the same girl. :) And I am, without a doubt, the luckiest guy alive.

I'm wondering... are all of your poems about the same girl? If so, you're one lucky fellow.

I love these words, man! You make something so simple seem very complex and beautiful. Well done.
