...The One

She is...In Time...The One. Happy One Year Anniversary to my beloved.

...The One

A Poem by Colton Warr

Many eyes will be able to see these words

Yet yours are the only that I prefer 

Let them become your vision  

An idea of this life without you I have interred

Many hearts will be able to feel these words 

Yet yours is the only that I prefer 

Let them marinate within your arteries 

And let the words of any other go unheard 

Many smiles may cut through many faces 

Yet yours cuts through all of the ages 

Let that starry smile of yours shine 

And I want to see that smile as we travel to different places  

Many souls may detonate into fire 

Yet yours connects with mine and inspires 

Let our souls eternally intertwine 

If I have you, there is nothing else in this life I wish to acquire 

                                 *

Four

You have a smile that I would do anything for 

As soon as I see it I feel the butterflies frolic within my core

Its perfection is like the slow rolling waves against the sandy shore

And to know that I make you smile the most is a thought I eternally adore

Three

Your hands are as soft as all of the clouds that I can see

They fit so perfectly with mine, I volunteer to be their detainee  

And to my heart, these angelic hands of yours hold the key 

For when I am interlocked with you I feel utterly free

Two

Looking into your eyes makes me feel like our love is new

I can see the sun and the stars, the world has no better view

I lose myself to their gaze and think this must be voodoo 

Then I return to myself and my eyes consume all of you

One

I have met no other human who’s heart has done what yours has done

When I first heard your laugh, I was paralyzed, stunned 

And when our lips first met my heart felt as if it was shot by a gun

Is there anyone else you’d rather be with, you ask? None. 

                                     *

I am forever thinking to myself, these words are not good enough 

How could they ever be for a girl who is so above?

I am forever drinking from the Grail of what we can become 

I hope you understand, doll, that this is no bluff 

I am forever intimidated to write for a girl like you 

But write for you forever is something I must do 

What I have implicated is that no matter what we go through 

You are the ink within my pen and forever my Muse

There is a man in my life that I live without. I found my voice in poetry because of him. He inspires me. Maybe one day. Your poem touched me because I thought of him. The tears in my eyes are because your words stirred me. Thank you for letting me feel him through your words.

[Colton Warr]

Wow, I am blown away by this review. Words can't describe how I feel, the fact that I moved you in such a manner. That's beautiful. I am honored to have created something that has touched you in such a way where you think of this man in your life and how he inspires you. Honored. I'm glad you enjoyed this piece. Thank you so much for reading!

You may be "intimidated to write" for that girl of yours, but I can assure you, there are loads of women who would love for a man to feel like this about them.
A wonderful tribute on your One Year anniversary. Congratulations!

A minor error: In section "Four" - third line - you wrote 'the the.'

Thank you, my friend!

[L. Michelle Corp]

Oh my GOD. This is one hell of an incredible poem. You are talented, sweetheart. This deserves to be published and read over and over and over. Yes, I cried. Yes, every person's eyes who read this will likely get wet. I hope she read it. I hope it is framed on her wall; it would be on mine.

[Colton Warr]

Thank you so very much!! You are too kind! I am humbled by your sweet and encouraging words! Seriously, this review has mad my day and it just got started! I'm glad you enjoyed this piece and I am more specifically glad that it moved you. That is the highest honor as a writer. She did indeed read it and she fell in love with every word! I am grateful for this fantastic review, thank you so much for giving this a read!

[L. Michelle Corp]

You are welcome, Colton. I must avert my eyes as I scroll back up; I do not want to cry again. If I were the recipient of a poem of this caliber, I would be down on my knees, kissing the author's feet, feeling so unworthy of such eloquent words.

[Rana]

This is such a precious piece of work, it certainly must've evoked the most beautiful plethora of feelings, each word bringing her more delight. It's really really well-composed. :)
