Raise You Up Poem by Elisha Nelly

I like to raise your smile
With every passing word widen your eyebrows
With all the humor we share
love the way you twitch those lips
And say this is real
love to make you move in amazement
As we dance the night away
love to see you smile
When I say all there is it’s you
seeing you smiling
Time stops…..

And alas I stand there beseeched
And streamlined pointy
Everything feels in place
And definitely speechless
I capsize to the deep end
Of your contained emotions
