I wrote this poem a lil’ over a month back. I once heard or read something somewhere explaining how when you love someone, after a while you start “learning them” – starting to know everything about them… some to the point that when you close your eyes and visualize them, you can recall exactly how they look, what they sound like, and even their  mannerisms. I don’t know how well I’ve explained this thus far, but my whole point was going to boil down to the fact that this poem is about “learning” someone, and I tried to include all five senses in it. This is my first poem posted on this site and I hope that you people enjoy it. Have a spiffy day!

The lullaby in your voice
Beautifully deep
Softly whispering
To put me to sleep
The magic in your eyes
So unique in hue
Add to the reasons
Why I love you

Your sense of humor
Always making me laugh
Making me realize
You’re what I have to have
Your reassuring touch
Create feelings anew
And add to the reasons
Why I love you

I want to know
The taste of your kiss
The stars above
Upon I wish
Your sweet scent
Contributes too
They all add to the reasons

Why I Love You

So there is a poet hidden inside there!! I thought you said you would never let people read your work? Heh..Well I'm glad you did this was very beautiful, if you haven't given this to him yet I would because your love for him shines through the whole poem...I wish you the best in all that you two have and continue to write, it's stunning

"Why I love you"... *smile*, yes this is a nice way to think in terms of...all the things that evoke these feelings...you touch upon it beautifully in this poem. I say touch upon, because it seems to me that even if you wrote an epic, it couldnt contain even nearly all the reasons why you love someone. This is a lovely poem, thanks for sharing

If you listen hard enough silence can mean more than words.

Hey everyone! Thanks for the welcomes and the replies. 'Tis true that I said I would never share my poetry, and I was apprehensive of actually posting one of my poems, but you guys have taken all of the worries away with your kind words. Again, thank you very much!
