For my future love (a poem) by the sunflower poems

For my future love

I look at you and all I see is beauty

outward beauty and inner beauty

telling you this, makes you feel uncomfortable

you tell me that you aren't as I see you

your eyes see so much beauty in everything

but what is with your own beauty

why don't they see this beauty

I have to tell you one important thing, my love:

I would never change anything about you

but also...

if I could, I would change your eyes

only your eyes

not because I don't like them

because they don't see the real you

I would give you the eyes by another person

I would give you mine

like that you could see yourself the way I do

you would see how beautiful you are for me

and what a gift you are for this inner-breaking world

but then she tells me..

she tells me she knows she is beautiful

she tells me she knows her worth

but still... she can't see it, she doesn't feel it

I never wanted something as bad as I wanted her to feel as pretty as she should

I wanted her to get the feelings of walking in a summer rain and dancing to some music when she looks at herself

I wanted her to feel love when she looks at herself...

the way I do

So I tried to explain to her what my eyes see

what my eyes make me feel when they see her

I tried to explain to her that only she can give me the feelings I get by seeing her

I tell her...

I feel poetry when I see you

I feel full of energy, full of happiness, full of joy when I see you

and then I realize

everytime I see her

that she is mine and I will never find someone like her

and that she got me and she will never lose me in this life
