I want to write a thousand poems,
To your radiant smile
The way your dimples flash,
When you look into my eyes.
I want to sing out loud,
About your sparkling eyes
Whose intriguing depths,
I hope, one day, to map out.
I want to immerse myself,
In the melody of your voice
Those gorgeous baritones,
That reverberate in my soul.
I want to be the lyrics
To every poem you’ve ever read,
To every song you’ve ever heard,
To every melody you’ve ever hummed …

Love that last verse! We all want to be the lyrics of our lover’s song, don’t we. I just read about a documentary about Leonard Cohen and his muse Marianne. How amazing it must be to hear a song and know its lyrics are yours alone.

You had me at the first two lines. I especially liked the way this part adds a personal touch… “Those gorgeous baritones/ That reverberate in my soul”. The last stanza could stand alone….an exquisite expression of love.
Sorry for this late response.
