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.
