Perfect Person

By SubwayBoi

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I shouldn't even touch you, To touch the face of perfection would be to jade it. This is like looking at perfection, Your sleeping body lying next to me. What have I done to deserve this blessing? There isn't enough time In the universe To examine your face When every single detail, The light bouncing off your lip, Should be studied and catalogued. People have this idea of The Perfect Person. Someone without flaws, Without errors, Without mistakes, Without humanity. But my idea of The Perfect Person Is one who can touch me, Hold me, Make me think, And disagree with me. Tell me I'm wrong, Tell me I'm an idiot, Make me rethink. You don't have to be a supermodel to be The Perfect Person. You just have to be All that you are.Sorry if this is too sappy for you. I was just in the mood for looooove ;) Written March 28th, 2002 © on Mar 27 2002 05:08 PM PST   0 • 8
