What Is It About Me That You Love? by Chris Sorrenti
Your physical beauty
and within it your smile
especially the few times
I’ve made your face light up
Your giggle guffaw
but what I especially look forward to
is hearing you in a side splitting belly laugh
Your quick wit
always ready with a come back
unless I catch you off guard
but you’ve caught me by surprise a few times too
which I enjoyed
Your fierce anger
and though intimidating in one sense
also kinda sexy
The fact that you’ve always seemed haunted
troubled by something
or at least in deep thought
perhaps a poet like myself?
though yet to fully realize it
But most of all
that I’ve always felt a spiritual connectedness to you
uncanny baffling unnerving
as if we’ve been associated for all eternity
