To put into words exactly what I'm feeling is difficult.
The phrases are all on my lips; the tip of my tongue,
And yet all of them together could never suffice.
And so I'm at a loss of words.
Seeing you is like a splash of yellow on canvas.
Everything seems bright and cheery.
My heart sings joyously in your presense
Each and every single time.
When the warmth of you isn't near,
All color fades to gray and the skies cry.
And I struggle to keep moving forward
Because without you, I no longer feel completed.
You're the stem to his blooming flower,
The first snow on a magical Christmas,
The love imbedded in a tender first kiss
And the only piece that fits my puzzle.
So come away and be with me.
I long for you to complete me.

I usually despise poems that don't rhyme, but this is so amazing. I totally felt the words of this poem.. they weren't just words though... they were so much more.

The first stanza reminds me of Wittgentien's theory, "Whereof cannot speak, whereof one must be silent." Throughly good, I wish it wasn't so cliche, especially the title: "you complete me" is has been said by every bacheloer looking for a quick fix.
I thought the title was first "Come Compete Me" which would have been a more interesting poem
