This is a poem for you

But NOT a love poem

Love poems are cheesy and cliché

And my love for you

Is NOT cheesy and cliché,

It's so much more.

You deserve much more than a poem 

filled with things you already know I'll say,

Like how your eyes are the most brilliant shade of green

Or that your blond hair shines like gold in the sun

You already know

I think you're the most amazing person in the world

And that my love for you is ineffable.

Remeber this is NOT a love poem

This is NOT a poem about your breath taking kisses

That always leave me wanting more

Or the way your smile just makes me melt 

In the way describled in cliché teenage love stories.

This is a poem about so much more than that.

This is a poem about how when you call me beautiful

I don't doubt it,

Or that I've never felt as amazing 

As when I'm laying in your arms

This is a poem about the love I feel for you

NOT a love poem

That hides within the clichés.

This will never be a poem about 

How your laugh is contagies in the best possible way,

Or how I'll never get tired of hearing your voice at 1 am

as we talk about sweet nothings.

This is a love poem

With so much more.
