Love Poetry: she is

'she's beautiful
she's human
she's an angel without wings
she has a smile that can calm a storm
she's a picture i carry around in my heart
she's in my thoughts
she's just someone that can't be ignored
whatever she ask for i always want to give more
her beauty runs deep
you can explore
you'll see it's true when you reach her core
when i think about it
i wonder just how much more can i write about her
and one day when she looks back
will she know i always loved her/would she love my declaration in word or in deed
how about both but which one more
will she be keeping score
o i hope not coz i'm a man flawed
and can't promise to never disappoint her
or even say that i will never hurt her
but one thing i'm sure about is
i will always love her
try my best to always honor her
and with my two hands build a platform where she feels free to dream
i can't live her life
i can't live her dreams
but i sure hope i'm in both of them
and if i'm not i still hope she's happy in both of them/even if it's with another man
coz she is/nothing more nothing less
she's a perfect fit
stands out beautifully in this imperfect world
like a rose in a nuclear waste dump
i never knew loving someone can be this much fun
and when i'm scared i don't have the urge to run
i hold her hand and tell her i'll be right by your side hun
and should we both stare at the end of the barrel of a gun
i'll be sure to jump in front of her so that she'll have a fighting chance
she is
she's my world
she's got it all
i will catch her if she should ever fall
let her know on me she can always call
she's a princess
i'll request the last dance at the end of the world
yeah i want to be with her till the end
i want to be her lover her helping hand and her best friend
taking snapshots capturing moments making memories
from our first hello first date first kiss first fight first make up first i love you
to holding of hands saying goodbye to take our last breath/and everything in between
she walking down the isle and our individual i do's
and the home we filled with loving memories
laughter tears and seeing our kids leaving for college
that's life and we can loose it all in an instance
but at least we can say we lived love
coz living without love is just existing
an empty vase that never gets filled with flowers
useless
a car exploding in a parking lot with zero miles on it
never knowing its potential'
