ALL THE CALM I NEED
That night was lit
The night I got lost
The very night I was deep in thought.
The night I chose to stay
Destiny blew a work of art my way.
A treasure was found that night
A rare gem was brought to light.
Her eyes drew me close
Made me want to raise a toast
Her lips like fine wine
Arousing feelings so divine
My feelings came to confusion
I need to make a decision.
My heart beating faster
My head pounding louder
Make me sane, I begged
Calm me down, I pleaded
I’m losing it, I screamed
My walls are breaking, I yelled
And then she touched me
Every whisper of it brought my chaos to a halt
Her smile erased my imperfections
Her words soothed my soul
In her, I saw no foul.
*
She is one of a kind
So sweet, tender and kind
She’s the one I crave
Like something I’ve never seen before.
Every day, I wear a face so straight
Every night I patiently wait
For the one who brought sanity to my insane world.
