What Is It Really? Poem by Wilfred Mellers

Was it your smile or your pretty face?
Thoughts of you, my love I cannot seem to erase
For you, my love transcends known time and space
I'm yearning your tenderness and your loving warm embrace

A life without you I could not stand at all
I am an addict now suffering from withdrawal
Take me for I submit to you ever so humbly
I need you desperately for my summers are turning wintery

You are my shining light that illuminates the night
When you are with me everything feels all right
You make the flowers grow in midwinter's snow
For anywhere you go now I shall surely follow

Is it the way you speak that makes me feel so weak?
Is it your shining hair lying across your back so sleek?
Is it the clothes you wear that make men stop and stare?
Preciouses you are to me for we are truly a pair

Tell me one more time that you never know
Flying ever more never more solo
We are now birds of the same feather
Forever we shall stay for we are bound together

Oceans can never keep us far apart
Captured by your smile I've given you my heart
You put back the music in my life and now I'm all filled up with glee
I'm overjoyed with love and feeling really tipsy

Holding your hand I walk with you proudly
Didn't you know that I needed you so badly?
I love the way you walk to me it looks so sexy
My angel cake sweet, spicy, and extremely foxy

You say you can't help it for you are born this way
For every day now seems to be my birthday
Give thanks for lost of most of the drama
I am so elated that you got it from you momma
