You are beautiful (Love poem#1)

You are beautiful.

Beautiful.

All-consuming,

Graceful.

You consume the room
 as you stroll in.

You steal the stars
from the sky
   and the light
    within.

I am your man, your groom
 and you -- my moon,
  the sand, the water,
   my before, my after.

Here I die
on this cold summer’s night.

I love you,

and love you.

Fondly. Sincerely.

May you live
forever

my gem, my treasure.

Wow! This beautiful love poem wound its way straight into my heart! So warm and sweet and very finely crafted.

SO enjoyed reading and thank you for sharing, Ern...

Such a revelation and pledge of love that is most poetically stated and reveals the depth of the emotion. Very nicely done Ern

Truly beautiful. A love so unconditional you cannot help but write about it. Undeniably well written.
