What Do You See? Poem by Elizabeth

When you look at me,
What do you see?
Eyes full of fire and confusion,
Or a girl full of passion and zeal?
With one kiss the deal is sealed,
My love for you is set in stone
And I am forever yours.
Your stainless heart and radiant soul,
Shine together to form one of God’s greatest creations,
Which in return reminds me
Of the wonderful person I am made to be.
So when you look at me, what do you see?
Eyes full of fire and confusion,
Or a girl full of admiration and love for you?

All of the sweet things you say to me
Swim around my mind as if I’m losing control,
But the funny thing is, I don’t really mind at all.
The way you look at me could drive me crazy,
Because all I see in your eyes is
Honesty, courage, and enduring love.
Your touch proves to me the truth in your words
And the bold, yet gentle love in your heart.
Everything about you radiates passion,
strength, and undeniable joy.
All I know is that I could never find anyone else like you.
So when you look at me, what do you see?
A girl full of admiration and love,
Or a heart full of passion and zeal for you?

You have your subtle ways of proving to me
That you mean every word that escapes your lips.
From your comforting hugs to your cute teasing ways,
You remind me that there really is no one else like you.
In the times of struggle and pain,
Or just the times I have made my own stupid mistakes,
You have always been there for me,
And you have always done your best to pick me back up again.
There is no doubt in my mind
That you love me as much as you say you do,
I only hope that one day you will love me as much as I love you.
I sincerely mean every word I have and will ever say to you,
So when you look at me, what do you see?
A heart full of passion and zeal,
Or a girl full of amazement and awe for you?

Love is much more the inability to comprehend
How I fell so quickly and deeply for you than an actual word.
Before you, love was just another way to win over others,
But you have shown me the honest
And fun side to this amazing feeling.
You make me feel beautiful even though
I know I’m just simple me with my silly little quirks,
But somehow I know you love me all the same.
We may have arguments that I lose,
But the one argument I know I deserve to win
Is that I love you more than you love me.
So when you look at me, what do you see?
A girl full of amazement and awe,
Or a heart and soul that yearn for you?

You encourage, teach, and inspire me
To do all of the things I never thought were possible.
You make my heart want to sing the most extraordinary melody,
While my mind forms the breathtaking lyrics to flow alongside it,
Allowing our love to finally sing the most inconceivable song;
Although, I believe we already have our own silent song
That plays as we exchange the silent, unspoken words
Between our hearts, lips, and souls.
So when you look at me, what do you see?
A heart and soul that yearn for you,
Or a girl who would do anything to keep you forever?

They say young love never lasts,
But who are they to say ours can’t?
One day we will look back on our lives
And see that from the moment our eyes first met,
We knew where our lives were headed together.
There are so many things I want to say to you,
But the words are impossible to find.
As long as you are by my side,
I will always do my best to show how much I love you,
And I will always remind you
Of how much I want and need you in my life.
One day I hope you finally understand these simple words:
You are the man of my dreams.
So when you look at me, what do you see?
A girl who would do anything to keep you forever,
Or your soul mate who will be all of these things for you and more?
