My Blue Eyes

Location

I have known happiness

It is within my very being and my reason for living

It greets me in the morning with eyes so loving and so kind

My dear blue eyes

I will adore you not only when the sun shines its brightest

But when waters trickle from the sky

It is true I will buy the world for you

But I may have to put it on layaway for a few hundred years

Oh sweet longevity

Bless you, time

If character is who one is in the darkness,

Then I love your darkness

You are the addiction I simply cannot do without

Who needs sanity when there are drugs such as yourself

I have made up my mind

Our love will not be hidden behind a tree

I want to go bold and be loud with you

For we live lives of pure poetry

Is it not marvelous?

Let us make beautiful music together entwined

If I had 10,000 tongues I could not praise you enough

For I am bound by words

Such words are too small a measurement 

Of the bliss upon which you have given me

My beloved blue eyes

When I met you the entire paradigm of my existence shifted

I decry the life I had lead before you graced it with your presence 

Seemed rather inadmissible and deprived

The contentment, the joy

I believed I had felt now seemed so squalidly aligned

I realized that I had had everything,

And yet I had nothing

I had been everywhere,

And yet I had nowhere to go

For I did not have you

I had not been where you had been

 But I am a new creation

I have been revised

And you are an award winning novel

I, the avid reader

So transfixed and taken away by you, I am

I trust you even when I cannot trace you

Because of you, I have made friends of the birds

They are my own personal choir

And hail me throughout the day with their chimes

If I am not loving you before anything else

I am dying

For I live for you

I live for your sanguine disposition

I live for the feel of your breath against my breast

As we lay down in still comfort

I live for how subtle your beauteous words grace the air

As you playfully whisper them into my ear

I live for the forever warmth of your hands

And strength of your thighs

I live for you my love

My charming blue eyes

I have known happiness

He is within my very being and my reason for living

He greets me in the morning with eyes so loving and so kind

He is a man and I am his woman

He is blue eyes
