Description
- your hipbones:
my hands fit perfectly
on each side of you,
and i feel as though
if i just keepholdingon;
then maybe i'll never have to let go.
because love, i want you
to be right in front of me
for as long as breath is still
seeping from your lips to mine.
- your eyes:
the gold has disappeared;
but love, they still shine sometimes.
they still shine for me.
and i think you'll be happy to know
that when they find their way to mine,
i feel like i'm here for a reason.
and maybe - just maybe -
that reason is for us to be together.
- your spine:
it's like a creek,
but polluted with nothing but love.
never-ending, just like we could be.
if only i could find out
just how you became so beautiful.
baby, can you save our lives?
baby, i can help you.
- your smile:
not the one that comes
when you're trying to be funny.
no, i love the one that's there
the moment before you tell me
that you love me more than anything.
that's the smile that makes me
fall for you, over and over again.
- your ribcage:
every clichΓ© that describes them
makes me realize how stunning
they truly can be, though
piano keys and xylophones
could never sound like you.
you were always too good
for the ordinary things in life.
but that somehow doesn't make you
- too good for me

Cheesy or not, it's gorgeous. I love every line...and how you pinpoint those specific things that make you think maybe, just maybe, the words really are worth saying. Because it's moments like that, when you can scratch the reasons to specifics, that you realize the words are what you truly mean. Excellent job.

Very poignant and profound, I like how you've described things. The similes and metaphors are very cool.
