its not just the way you walk
on the ‘gentleman's' side of the street
and
its not just the way you snore
and twitch while you sleep
its not just because
of that fucking
adorable walk
and
its not just because
you say all the right words
when you talk
its not just because
id follow closely behind you for hours
just to stare at the back of your neck
and
its not just because with you around,
everything feels better,
even when its a wreck
its not just the way you melt me
with that shit eating grin
and
its not just the way i go weak in the knees
from the simple smell of your skin
its not just the commonalities,
or sharing ‘likes’
of many similar kind
and
its not just the fact that the touch of your skin
creates a static
that's impossible to define
its not just the way you demand to be looked at
with your
unrelenting stare
and
its not just the way you kiss me with intent
while grasping at the top of my head
by my hair
its not just because
there’s a whole 'nother ineffable world
just inside your touch
and
its not just because
i fear no one else
will ever make me feel as such
no,
its
so
much
more
its beyond the way you love
perfect amounts of passion,
respect, and care
that make me completely want to open up
[and ill admit, this is rare]
its beyond words in my poems,
or lyrics to any song
and
its something
that may haunt me
my
whole
life
long
