You

When the waters ride so slow,
and the heavens ache
for more.

When the clouds grow weary of their burdon
and dissapate
for the true sky.

As this untouchable perfect
becomes everything-
we dance.

Beauty mocks herself in shame.
For on this perfect day,
she has seen
you.

Jeremy David Halstead

This is simply beautiful. Normally free verse doesn't really thrill me but this is really really good. You have a way with words that's just...I don't even know how to describe it...amazing poem it has my vote and I hope it makes it into the book.
