Love Poem: Sophie

Sophie

This world full of mysteries, tangents, and sights; this world of opportunities for the days and nights
Everything was darkened and all I could see was never ending pain; I felt like I had nothing to gain
I thought I was stuck in a world that was grey, but now I have you and you make my day
I thought I was hopeless, helpless, and bleak; I thought I was always going to be weak
Out fled from destiny, a coincidence with great timing; I found you at last with little or less priming
I was only there to talk and to let out my feelings; you showed me you cared about all of my dealings

I never thought I would fall in love; I thought I would crumble and fall apart
I never knew I could be the one; a man who could hold your soul and heart
Filled with new joy I can feel certain things come back to life
The overwhelming joy you give me and you take away all my strife
There is only one thing I have on my mind for I could never leave you behind
Your love is warm and kind; you are the one I have been trying to find

The thought of you puts my mind at ease and only for you I want to please
I hope you know how much you appease; my heart beat for you will never cease 
Here I was drowning and you pulled me out of the tide 
You gave me your breath and woke me up inside
I could never want anything more or anyone else
You are the one I adore as my ever bleeding heart melts 

The only thing I ever need is you by my side indeed 
For you I beg and plead; with new hope we can plant a seed
You are gorgeous and divine and I am glad that you are all mine
I assure you everything will be fine as our lives begins to intertwine
You are not perfect and neither am I, but we are perfect for each other and that is no lie
If you ever want to cry I will be there and always try

Sophie, I am here for you because I want to show you that I care
Sophie, I will fight for you through thick and thin for you are fair 
Sophie, I will stick to you like the seal on an iron gate
Sophie, I will be with you because I know that it’s in our fate
Sophie, I will reassure and always be true
Sophie, listen closely to what I say… I love you
