Beautiful

I’m missing you
I’m craving you
Our love is magical 
You’re beautiful

Every time I see your face
I think I’m going to die
I feel a heat attack coming on
‘Cause baby you electrify
Your soul is pure, you’re full of life
When I look in your stormy eyes
I know 
You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful

Every time that you’re not looking
I get a chance to stare
I love the way the light reflects
Off of your gorgeous hair
You’re so handsome, you’re so cute
And you’re intelligent to boot
I know 
You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful

I know every line, every shape
Every contour of your face
I have a dream that recurs
You and I in the future

Every time I look at you 
My heart skips a couple beats
I feel it start up good and strong
‘Cause baby you are so sweet
Taking long walks on the beach
Skipping stones and sandy feet
I see
You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful

Every time I kiss your lips
I feel like I can fly
I shoot into the stratosphere
Gravity defied
Clouds sitting beneath my shoes
Every minute I spend with you
I know
You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful

Couldn’t live without you
I’m lost without you
We got that cosmic pull
You’re beautiful

Thank you for sharing. It's a very emotional poem. I would suggest maybe tightening it a little bit, and some expressions like "I think I'm going to die," might be considered phrases already used a lot. A poem is at its best when it finds original means of expression.
