SOMETHING ABOUT... YOU


Something about that dreaming look
You looked into my eyes,
‘Bout all you gave but never took
That took me by surprise.

Something about that simple smile
That simply stole my heart,
That touch of love, of life worthwhile,
Touching you did impart.

In all my life I never dreamed
A love so strong as this,
Till every light of heaven gleamed
Of hope within your kiss...

...Till every painful moment past
Instantly passed away.
The reasons come clear at last,
Hearing you say you'd stay.

...Till Joy began this memory
I'll forever hold true.
Seeing the best thing about me
In something about... you.

Let me be the first to say, wow and double wow this was so romantic, so easily flowed from one line to the next.

Michael

This is truly a strong devoted poem that shows the beauty of love and how it changes things...
Keep sharing my friend

Ask me how to live your life, and this to you I´ll say: make your choises true and wise, so that when tomorrow will arise, you´ll smile at yesterday...

Spoken straight from the heart.
Sometimes a look can be more passionate than a kiss.  Truely powerful expression your love.
Very nice piece of poetry.
