I am crazy about you

by David T. Gay

I am crazy about you

even though I shouldn’t be

you are beautiful to me

the compliment to my own beauty

if I could find an adequate way to say

how you make me feel

the world would stop

and imagine if we sold it all

everything on the whole earth

would not measure up to one hug from you

I know how you are

forget trying to hide it

I can tell because you’re like me

you need this kind of affirmation

but find it from others, not me

so should I wilt when you look

to other men for their praise?

When you have a heart like mine

passion is no joke, not an act

not a mask to pretend like you’re a character in a play

it is a field of daffodils, a sea washing the beach

sunlight through sycamores

the full moon

And so I can never forget you

even though I know I may never have you

to hug in my arms again

it is all I ever wanted to feel

my life’s ambition

to make you feel as complete a woman

as you drive me wild completely
