I love the way you are.

by KJ   Feb 10, 2010


I love the way you are
the simple way your body lies
when you're falling deep in sleep
and quietly close those chocolate eyes

I love the way you are
when my name slips past your lips
or when I'm safe inside your arms
and especially when we kiss

I love the way you are
when I've had a stressful day
and you're right there next to me
giving strength and love along the way

I love the way you are
when your breath is on my neck
with your lips pressed against my chest
as my fingers grip your back

I love the way you are
when you're vulnerable to me
looking right into my eyes
and I know undoubtedly...

...that there's nothing about you
from your fingers to your toes
that doesn't own my heart
because you are everything I love

    Really good write. I loved how your details made me feel like I was there with you. I flow was good and your rhyming was not forced like some peoples writing is. My only suggestion would be to capitalize the first letter when you start on a new line, it would make your work look neater. I really like this poem 5/5 :D

    Love the beauty this piece holds K.J ...

    What really caught my eyes is your beginning line in the first 5 stanzas.

    "I love the way you are"
    ^^^
    Without wanting to change, re-arrange or fix anything about her ... now that is what love truly is. Beautiful !!!!!

    ...that there's nothing about you
    from your fingers to your toes
    that doesn't own my heart
    because you are everything I love
    ^^^
    Lovely ending !

    Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece K.J, very much enjoyed the read. ~hugs~
