Taking your face into my hands I gaze deeply. And with a fingertip slowly trace You Eyes, nose, forehead Arching eyebrow, high cheekbone Curve of your cheek, firm chin Small little laugh lines at the corner of each lip And with eyes closed Commit every feature to my mind Memorizing the map of my heart's delight Made real in your visage. And opening my eyes, I lean in Softly take your lower lip And gently bite down Tasting your flesh with hunger Tongue slowly tracing the outline Of each bite As I seek to memorize your taste Embed it in my mind Immortalize the taste forever and beyond. You are so beautiful In so many ways That it takes my breath away Every time I hear you Speak the words That burn into my very soul "I love you" And you may deny all you want to when I call you beautiful Cringe slightly when you hear the words "You are my beauty" Laugh it off to your heart's desire Beg me to stop (which I will never do) You are the most beautiful woman This guy has ever seen Held, touched, tasted. Beauty as beauty is meant to be Where it starts in your heart And then shines on your face And lights my world In all the hues of you You My beautiful you. |
