Take me away
On the wings of certainty;
Take me to a place
Where I can be sure
Of my steps.
You are beautiful;
No lack of inspiration
Can change that.
Don't take this moment
From me;
I'm rejoicing at
My glorious find.
You've taken my breath away;
Don't ever go.
I'm dreaming of you
Each moment
My head lies on the pillow.
I can't believe
How I long for
Someone like you;
My heart aches
To be near you.
When the muse
Seems to be
Nowhere in sight,
I am proven wrong
The moment I lay eyes
On your beautiful face.
Be careful with my heart--
It is not only vulnerable
To your smile,
But prone to melt
At your touch.

This is beautiful. I think everyone looks for the one person you described and hopefully one day we will all find that person. Good Luck to you.

your so right snowpants when you find that person that you look at and you feel like your going to swoon, and your heart starts palpitating a hundred miles an hour, you know your only thoughts are of him, it's then that you realize you can't be without them. This is so beautiful.
