You Complete Me

I always get a rise when I see your eyes
Looking back into mine – 
And am never quite sure if it’s you or me 
Reflecting in the ocean of your mirror-like iris 
Back in time.
Simply stated: You blow my mind! 

And try as I may, I’ll never fully comprehend 
The true measure of your beautiful perfection – 
Or what it is you see in me that moves you 
In my direction.  
Simply stated: You’re my greatest predilection. 

What miracles exist for this moment to persist
For you and I to live this life as one -  
Eye to eye and hearts entwined 
Like ribbons tied together till we’re done.   
Simply stated: I love you more than earth, moon, sky and sun.  

And words no longer matter 
As they fall short on this page.  
Unable to convey my thoughts 
Of what I truly wish to say. 
Simply stated: You complete me in every way.
