Je Ne Sais Quoi

Can't quite put my finger
on the actual ingredients,
 but I know it's you by
the flavorful residue.
Sometimes I cannot
hear everything you say
but I'm in tune with
your mouthful of subtle
affirmations
All of your yeses
has me attentively listening
As if my ears were stethoscopes
and I was prescribed
to give your heart hope.
I listen although
I do not know your definition
I can still use you 
in every one of my 
sentences
Visually, your framed
as my foundation
for the crown I was
meant to wear
Some call it bling
but I say you've been
 roots that lead
to a golden oasis
I akin you to the sun
Your scent rivals
summer flowers
I can close my eyes
and know just where I am
as if the junction between
your thighs were a field of clover
And there was no need
to search further,
but dive right on in
You see I know you
without knowing knowing you
because I am
always dreaming about
the description of you
Described as I am.
