The Person You Are

by Jennifer RIP Lesthat Hayden   May 25, 2008


I've tried to find the words to describe you.
I've searched every dictionary and
what I discovered was more than a few.
Here are the words I can think of off hand:

-Inquiring
-Discursive
-Inspiring
-Subversive
-Aesthetic
-Superior
-Poetic
-Ulterior
-Productive
-Diverting
-Instructive
-Exerting

What more on earth could I ask for?
You are the sunshine and shadows of my days.
You are my ceiling and my floor.
You are my smile, laughter, cry, and my gaze.

The light in my bedroom and dark in my sleep.
My joy in the morning and pleasure at night.
My savior of nightmares and dreams that I keep.
The past I've let go and the future held tight.

The person forever locked up in my heart
and the person loving me for being me.
Not only the ending, but also the start.
Taking away blindness and letting me see.

So, love me forever and beyond the grave.
I'll love you always and cherish your soul.
You're the trinket I found and what I must save.
you got me in pieces and made me whole.

    Jennifer..
    Wow! This is just amazing, and so sweet. It's such a cute poem in which you express everything. I love romance poetry.. =) Ahh.. This is great. One thing that I absolutely thought was excellent and unique was how you just put down the words that you use to describe this one guy whom you love. It's very unique and I love how you just wrote them in a list. It's something I've never seen someone do before in a poem. :] Hmm... This is very sweet. Bottom line. 5/5.
