Poetry
Speechless
This poem’s origin actually was very different,
from what it has now manifested to be,
for there is something that inquires me and requires me,
to ask you one thing, Do I make you nervous?
Because there is something that you posses,
that leaves me speechless, breathless,
when will I be able to breath again?
However, I can’t determine
whether its the strength in your voice,
or the innocence your eyes portray,
although I must say...
It is clearly evident,
that a woman of you stature must be heaven sent,
for each simplistically silent moment we share,
is enriched with happiness.
Or at least that's the way it seems to me,
or maybe I’m once again wearing my heart on my sleeve,
forgive me please and give me,
the benefit of the doubt,
for verbally once again words I am without.
