Best For Last
They say one man's trash is another man's treasure
& they treat you like garbage bags full of invaluable nothings
While I treat you like
A pirate chest full of priceless undiscovered riches
& I bask in the glory of my wealth
But others look at me as a poor man
But I don't care
I want to lay my face on you mahogany skin
Catch whiff of your scent with my senses
Grasps by the sensation
My body explodes
Erupt with utter passion
You make me feel a way I never felt before
& your all I need & I never want more
You say all the right things without a clue
So Im going to say the best for last
Your the one for me & Im the one for you
I want you, my priceless treasure chest
To open your chest
Let me in
If I didn't have enough already
Give me more reasons to love you
Allow me to lay a finger on you
& feel the smooth slickness of your soul
So if, God willing
We are able to be together
For the rest of our lives
When our hair is the color of storm clouds & tombstones
& our bones sound like skin sliding against plastic
I will recite this poem & see the look on your face
& as you smile
The wrinkles near your eyes
Look like a willow tree praising proudly against the wind
You are the one for me
It's always been you
The one I was looking for
I'm glad I didn't settle for a lover
Who's a little more boring but a lot less picky
Because those love filled conversations
I never would have known
Would be missed
Lastly you are the best thing that has ever happened to me
You are the butter to my bread & the breath to my life
& as this journey continues
I pray that the mistakes we made
Brings us closer together
You make me feel a way I never felt before
& your all I need & I never want more
You say all the right things without a clue
So Im going to say the best for last
Your the one for me & Im the one for you
