84119, You mean more than this
Posted by WILDOUT, Tue Dec-15-09 03:25 PM
I made a surprise for you so here I'm laying clues
In hopes that one day we can laugh about what I will do;

You keep on asking me what's inside those boxes
the boxes arent the shape of the gifts that are inside them
inside are a few bags
godiva chocolates
raspberry flavored dark chocolate
like the time i asked you to try some
you picked it out
and when we were walking
you got me an ipod that now has over 10,000 hiphop songs
8000 plus reggae tunes, im in love
you know me you know me more than anyone
that's how it feels now
you ate that chocolate and smiled you said it was unbelievable
retrievable though
so there it is, a box of them
plus next to that a bag with some grapefruit body wash smelling too fresh
she needs this i think as i walk by, and i
stopped by at the spa you know, women only, they were like how do you know to get a gift for her here
hmmm
i know all too well that the women in my family need relaxation we all do
it's due to us, do to us running around to make things happen
and you my darling, new years eve have an appointment
they call it the works, because it's everything they do
and it's for you you mean more then this

I have never been so sure

I have never felt something so solid

In a friend, or a girlfriend

Jacuzzi for the bath
and
ofcourse a new shower to keep you warm

I'm a do this
because as life progresses
I've been blessed with
such company
that it's up to me to show them
what it's been
what it is
I know you feel special already
you said you do
but I'd give you the world
this is just a piece for you
said I'd give you the world
and every time I speak of you
the listener's feel like I'm rich
because of how I keep with you
Listen you are a queen to me
I mean for me, I hope to grow old next to you with Sage
and more than that, I hope to find the place we're looking for
magic, undefined by basic principals
advanced wishes too complex to put here right now
at the center
their you are

I just wanted you to know
how it feels to be the mother of someone so beautiful
and still be able to be swept off your feet as you should be
You think so much of it
I think it's so little
how much do we spend daily on ourselves and our company
and you are so much more than this
you make me joy pour out of me
in my smile
in my walk
in my mind
in my food
in everything
because like vines we grew ontop of eachother
and like trees we grow evermore
expanding and standing together

oh you will always mean more than this
so much more than this
so much more than
winning a contest to austin texas
which is so ridiculously cool i'm still trying to get my head around it
things are looking up for everyone around me
that's how it should be
so many wishes
i made so many
i guess it takes alot of time for them to catch up when you take so many
turns at being the caster of young spells

I want you to know, I do this because I'm sure of you
And that is worth, more than your weight in gold
More than I could ever give
You give me something I want
I want to meet you
each morning
each time I wake up from dreaming
no matter what shape i'm in
Believe me
you have given me the gift of love
that they try to sell at christmas
believe me
you have given me gifts
that sheltered me
watered me
sunned me
liberated me
and soon you'll have all that is yours
that's what we work towards
nothing but greatness for you
you are my love

and sometimes
you need to get more than you want and need
you need to be taken away from everything
you need to be engraved into anothers heart
you need to be given a chair at my table

but you mean more than this

Rarely has a poem made me cry. I'm tearing up even now and the tears are threatening to spill over...too late...WOW! If people learned to love like that...I have no words. Wild, it's so very beautiful.
