Whenever I Look in Your Eyes

 
Every time I look in your eyes there’s a sensation I get
Ever since that first time we met
When I was instantly smitten by you
And with each verse I’ve written out to the universe
This feeling pours like a loud cloudburst
As the profound emotion seems to flow right through

I can compose you a thousand and one poems and prose
But each one of those will never come close
To bind and define the love that feels so intense
The passion will crescendo in a wave of chorus and chords
Bathing you in a plethora of stanzas and words
Trying to soothe the soul with satisfaction and recompense

Composing has always given me that sense of peace
As I find something new with each piece
Understanding myself little more every time
And though I try to describe the feeling
I discover how poetry is calming and healing
It makes me reflect which is why I’m thankful you are mine

My song cannot be easily arranged or sung with grace
It lives amidst memories of youthful days
In dreams and sighs that can light up the skies
It’s embedded at the very core of my being
As the harmony I hear within is very freeing
Because its the sensation I get whenever I look in your eyes
