I remember the day you said HI

And my goose bumps responded

My tongue was too tied and twisted I stuttered every time I tried to utter a sentence

 So there I stood, stunned

See I never knew beauty could breathe until I saw you

And if the beautiful ones are not yet born

Then I wonder where you must come from

I always thought I was shock absorbent

Until your touch sent sparks and shivers down through my spine

You must be human cocaine

Cos the mere sight of you leaves me high

Your eyes make me view love from a 3d perspective

And the lightning on your skin are proof that GOD is an artist

The way you talk, and walk, and grin, and whine and dine with my emotions

Remote control my affections girl you’re my favorite channel

There’s something in your eyes that keeps me awake at night

You’re the truth I can’t deny yet you’re my favorite lie

 See I used to be Thomas

Until you came and made my doubt lose faith in itself

Let me be your burning bush

The warmth in your harmattan

When your insecurities seize to find shelter in the comfort of your bosom

Let me be your haven

When your laughter deflates

My hands will patch the pieces together

When you feel worn out

My love will stretch like elastic

Big enough to contain your imperfections

I’ll hold your smile like fragile diamond

So when my lungs begin to fail me

And my tongue lacks enough poetry to describe your beauty

When greyhairs begin to tickle my fancy

I know the rainbow will testify of how special you are to me
