This poem is dedicated to love and happiness.
He makes me feel like poetry does.
Soothing, like a back rub or like the jets throbbing in a hot tub.
I’m in tune with his every move, like a dancer in a nightclub.
He makes me feel, like poetry does…
I’m excited when he’s around.
Levitating off the ground.
Mesmerized by his sound.
It’s the tone and his mentality for me.
He displays all the things I need, want, yearn, and desire.
Even in the coldest weather he lights my fire.
He makes me feel, like poetry does…
He has the ability to make me feel timid or fearless, depending on the word play, bar, or line.
Focused, trying to define.
I get lost in time.
He makes me feel, like poetry does…
He gives me chills down my spine.
Did I mention he’s fine?
He makes me unwind like wine.
He makes me vulnerable with every rhyme and rhythm.
He penetrates my soul whenever I’m near him.
He makes me laugh and giggle.
He makes me feel, like poetry does…
His loyalty is solid, so when he leads, I’ll follow.
He makes me live in the moment, not worried about tomorrow.
He’s so real, I feel like I hit the lotto.
He takes my hand.
He helps me to understand.
Being with him is like being in wonderland.
He makes me feel, like poetry does…
His kisses and hugs feel sent from above.
He makes me feel, like poetry does…
Most importantly, he makes me feel, he makes me feel.
He makes me feel fulfilled…
Like poetry does.
