Sunshine
You came into my life like a mustard seed
You grew each passing day
You radiate so much happiness that is contagious
You glow greatness like a dazzling diamond
You make me feel complete yet imperfect without you
You shine like the morning star
Your smile glitters like the sunshine
Little wonder I call you sunshine
Your flaws help me to grow
You teach me unconsciously
You make me tough yet affectionate
You make me a better man
You gave me bliss long lost
You helped my dying soul
You make me have a reason
You are one in a billion
You captured my heart in a way that is unexplainable
You grease my soul with joy unspeakable
You give me happiness indispensable
You make me smile beyond believable
Saying I love you might bore
But I must have said it a thousand times
Every time I say it, I mean it
For it comes from the deepest part of my heart
Smile babe, smile
Glow babe, glow
Laugh babe, laugh
With you, it’s unquestionable.

June 12, 08:30I often wonder what it’d be like to have in my life someone that represents to me this kind of complete beauty that all these love poems talk about. Between society’s disapproval of gay relationships and gay men’s general aversion to commitment, I doubt I’ll ever find it.
Lovely poem, Jay.
