That Girl Poem by Luke Gentry

That Girl



I could write you a sonnet but would you understand the meaning
I could sing you a song but would it mean much more
You are but grace and I have no way to show you
I have sat at the feet of love
I have visited halls and churches
I have rebuilt my universe to suit my private taste for grace
And it has lead me to you
You are nothing but poise and elegant
Like a flower
Stand still while I admire the botany
Your sudden presence is as light from the stars
Your eyes hold me and I stand trembling unearthing there mystery in a green abyss
As beautiful as forest ponds at night
I see the glory of your hair in the color of the moon full and darkly luminous
You are perfect in every way to me
You've kissed me once, and momentarily time touched the surface of eternity
Instant love
It's as if when thunder shakes the ground
Can I hold you in this hostile universe
Let people hunger for what we have
And whoever sets out to break us, let us break them
My darling take my hand and fear not anymore for we will have each other
