"Why I Laughed"  by Alec Delphenich (2003)

When I look at you I am speechless
There's no poetry to describe the way you are
What I see in your eyes is nothing I've ever seen before
And when I look at you there are no words to say

You are so incredible
And the way you are
It brings me to my hands and knees
What else can I say

When I think of what they did to you
Oh, how I want to help, but I don't think I can
I want to, I want to, but do you want me to
I can take that pain away if you'd like for me to

You are poetry
What else can I say
You are all there is
What more could I want

You are poetry
You are so incredible

You are everything I could hope for

I close my eyes, and what do I see
A pair of dark brown eyes looking at me
Your long drawn hair is flowing all over me
Oh, you're all I need

All I need
