Why I Love You Poem by Malaika Kariuki

Your eyes
Can i say anything to explain
You captivate me
Lover of my love
Smile on my lips
When you purse your lips
Even before you kiss me
I get that sense
That deep feeling
That reminds me of how hard i've worked
To get this close to your heart
It is our mental, emotional connection
That makes me so excited about you
It is what lies beneath your naked skin
That i long to touch
And those moments when we're so close
That i can't tell whose heart's beating so fast, so desperately
When all i can smell is your skin
And my lips taste like yours
And my eyes so deep in your own
That you're all i see
Those moments
Are
Always will be
Can never stop
Being the epitome
Of our love
