You & I

You have teeth.
You are of legal age in the state of California.
You were genetically born a female.
You can appreciate & understand my sense of humor.

You are pretty... like REALLY pretty.
You are like a bad case of steph throat...
You leave me almost speechless.

You are the 99% that occupies my thoughts.
You are the reason I put pen to paper.

You should have a disease named after you because your smile is infectious.
You make me want to be the main reason for that smile.

You are making some divine power hate itself for letting you go.
You make me say/think silly things.

You are better than the woman of my dreams.
You are real.

You make me want to put my arms around you...
so I can feel how big my universe is.

You must be the new flavor of oxygen.
I want to breathe you in & make you a constant part of my life.

You make a guy that friends claim has the "gift of the gab" completely tongue-tied around you.
I am content with sitting next to you.

We should do more than that though.
We should be acting on this mutual interest that everyone else sees.
We should be treating each other to a love that we both deserve.
We should be best friends.
We should be partners in crime.
We should be fighting over what to watch first on the DVR.
We should be sharing experiences together.
We should be finding that each new moment together is THE highlight of our life.

We should be working on a one life stand.
We should...
We should just end this poem and get started on that.

Semi-rough cut.
I kinda want to add a couple more You & I segments, but I feel like this gets the job done as a companion piece to I & You.

Questions? Comments?
There's a lil' hyperlink at the bottom of each post that you can use to leave your thoughts.

Plan is to start posting at least one piece a month.
Will this finally be the time my expectations finally meet up with reality?
Who knows?
Stay tuned folks.
