Poem: Perfect You.

Your skin is so brown,

Like rich chocolate.

Many might try

To step in and imitate,

_____________________

But their efforts are frustrated,

Because they don’t know

The half of it.

_____________________

How you add value to me,

Rendering my life strife-free,

_____________________

As you strive to ensure,

That our love thrives

For ever more.

_____________________

Maybe perfection is not

A real thing,

_____________________

But your love transcends

My imagination,

And all worldly definitions:

_____________________

It’s the only thing

That I need.
