Speechless to Meghan - by Erik Smith

return to Erik's poetry index

 

Today I met the perfect girl
Her smile could heat the seas
I've known her for years
And now we've met
Perfection personified

My images created this far
So far from what burns my eyes
Mind couldn't comprehend my amazement
Levels of gorgeous beyond the heavens

The physical form before me
Blowing my mind on every level
Parts the perfect lips
The kind you only see in movies
The kind you always dream about

Her voice
Surrounding me
Caressing my ears heart soul as a whole
No sweeter sound
She said hello
Never said better
Reality holds such a treasure?
Perfect person in what a shell

Hello
My voice stumbles
Embarrassed in this graced presence
The velvet laugh clears my mind
Can't stop this smile

How could such a perfect person
Survive inside
Surrounded by hell
Numb my mind
I never had a clue
I mean, I just never knew
Love swelling inside
Pictures never showed this
Can't remove my eyes
My life for her
