Be Mine

Your laughter sounds like a metaphor I have been trying to write down for years.
I find that my future is a blurry photograph taken with an awful camera,
and you're that one filter to make everything just perfect.

You make me want to write poems so sweet the ink on the paper attracts honey bees.
When God made you, the heavens sighed in awe,
He cussed for the first time, gave an angel a high five and said,
"damn, I ate on this one".

There are these rare nights full of quiet moments when I find myself thinking of you,
lost in the memory and transfixed by what it all used to mean,
hypnotized by the control your existence holds over me,
I love the way your breath alone ties me down.

I will redefine the parameters of what it means to be loved and name it after you.
You're the one;
the very first flower to blossom in my heart.
From the stars above to the oceans floor,
it's you l alone I shall adore.

With my knees on the ground,
I lay my fervent request before the altar of your heart,
please be mine, let me give you a reason to believe in love.
