Paizley Shaped Hole



Your laugh
It amazes me
The way your eyes flicker
Your mouth wide open
Head tilted back
And this silly, toothy giggle
The happiest girl in the world

Your kisses
Oooooo, they complete me
The way your mouth parts
No pucker
Just sloppy, wet sweetness
Planted with glee
All for me

And when you slumber
I watch and dream
About who you are
What you’ll become
Where life will journey
And I pray

I pray for your being
For your love through the thin
For sunny days
Starry nights
For your sweet laugh
Those sloppy, wet kisses
And to hold you in my arms

Mostly to hold you in my arms
Not around my neck
Not just in my dreams
Not just in my mind
That, my sweet angel baby
Would make me the happiest girl in the world

This heart, my love
Has a Paizley shaped hole
When you went away
My world changed
The sky turned black
The rain poured down

My solace is in the silver lining
That your toothy laughs
Your sloppy, wet kisses
May not be a dream one day
That this Paizley hole
May find its match
And the sun will shine again
