Honey Rose by Solomon Trimble
Her beauty has me.
It nourishes the air enough that roses grow in the wind without soil.
I could scream in her ear and she wouldn’t hear me over the volume at which I adore her face.
I thought I was so clever and keen, filling a tulip with nectar, and her, the butterfly to suckle.
But I’m a fool.
I stand here, in the ebb of her iris and I feel lucky to be reflecting.
When she blinks, I will be trapped in her mood forever.
This is the place where I call home; a place roses grow from honeycomb.

Solomon Trimble is the guy who’s playing Sam Uley in Twilight. Apparently, he was inspired by his character’s love for Emily Young and wrote this poem. If you search around, you will find a video of him reciting this beautiful piece. I just had to post it here because it really touched me.
