A Poem Of You Poem by Raymond Magabe

A Poem Of You

Rating: 5.0


How do I describe you beyond what you see in the mirror?
I 'google' my mind for words, but none stands out.
No word is worthy to describe you to mere mortals.

It seems I have o search the stars
of galaxies known and unknown just to catch a glimpse,
for your beauty exceeds that of the rarest of jewels.

Shine as the sun may, it will never measure to your smile.
Your eyes personify the north star to a lost sailor.
Your laughter gives life to my visions of heaven.

Your aura is something for fairies to envy.
Your body is a temple for earthly desires to be realised.
Your touch is the one thing mush-mallows were meant to be.

Your voice is a symphony of angels singing me into a trance.

I am hypnotized...

Paralyzed from the head down,
thoughts of you order me into action.
I think of you even when I am not thinking of you.

even if I could help it, I wouldn't.
A love this sweet gives purpose to my existence.

If I could write a poem to describe you,
I think this is what it would sound like.
