My First Love

I have tried to describe you 
But words have failed me 
Tried to explain a story
But every thought fails

Serve me your beautiful lips 
As a gift to my heart 
And I will tattoo my name on your 
forehead
Defining those different chapters 
of your body 

Like assorted chirping birds 
Singing different melodies 
I will run you over with silent touches 
While your eyes fall beneath my pants 

Hold me tightly sweetheart
And never say never
If love had a perfect formula 
Then, we are second to none 

I like your skin
Black and absolutely beautiful
Made from the bark of an iroko tree
Eyes nicely positioned like that of a 
mermaid 

Sharp pointed nose
Lovely head-tie
Captivating smile
You are probably a human killer 

Touch me 
I mean 'touch my soul'
Release my hidden pains 
And cause love sickness to fall 
upon me 

I didn't fall for you 
I walk in love with you 
With my eyes wide open 
Uncovering your beauty and 
attraction
