You

I keep my door closed now...

but it's closed and not locked

There's only one man I allow inside

and he never even had to knock

-

He showed up on my doorstep

without a single solitary warning

Kept me company, we talked all night

I had already fallen for him by morning

-

There were so many obvious things...

The flecks of silver in his blue eyes that shine...

I was mesmerized by his shimmering oceans

Enamored with how they complimented the seaweed in mine.

-

I had so much anxiety... I was so scared.

My heart was still recovering from war

but the butterflies within me kept whispering,

"Hey, this is someone worth fighting for."

-

I couldn't get enough of him

Some days, I still can't help but stare

I've always been a very shy person

but for him, my heart is stripped down bare

-

I hate public displays of affection

But around him, I can't even think...

Sometimes, it still feels like a dream

I'm afraid he'll disappear... so I try not to blink

-

My heart and soul sit fully on display

like there's nowhere left to hide...

I've always hated public displays of affection

But for him, I'm switching sides.

-

Because with him, I couldn't care less

if everyone around us is staring

Being his is the best feeling in the world

That's it. There's no comparing.

-

Walking towards you down that aisle

is a moment I still can't believe is true...

If I were to ever become famous...

I'd wanna be known for loving you.

-

These days when I'm asked if I'm happy

I can't help but just smile and nod

If angels don't exist...

How do I explain you to God?

-

If I were going to speak

Openly and true...

I could spend the rest of my life writing...

and still never write a poem as good as you.
