Inside And Out

You blush, sigh,
Break eye contact,
When I tell you
Just how beautiful
You are,
Inside and out.
Hopefully one day
You'll believe me
When I say
I love everything
About you,
And maybe I'll
Melt your
Insecurities away
With tender kisses
And the soft touch
Of my fingers.
So I'll keep
Making you blush
By describing how
I love the way
Light dances in
Your eyes,
How your laugh, smile,
Mesmerise,
How I can trace
Every laughter line
From memory,
Because to me
Each line, crease in
Your imperfect skin,
Is another integral
Part of the whole
That is you.
And I'll tell you
How I've never
Known happiness, bliss,
Like when I'm with you,
You make me
More myself than
I've ever known,
Your youth, joy, naivety,
Set me free,
And I love you,
Forever,
Inside and out.
