A whisper of hair glides across your cheek,
And I imagine how it feels,
To be
That thoughtless curl,
Cutting across your delicate features,

To be
That string of silk,
Tickling your skin,

To be
A strand of you,
Before I am brushed away.

I looked into the sky for my anthem
The words and music came through
But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen
Looking into you

The person you love is one lucky person.  To have someone so tender and admiring.  That's a really beautiful poem.
