The Poetry of Michael Langston


(43) IN ALL THE WORLD

There is no place I'd rather be
Than by your side, just you and me,
No other hands I'd rather touch...
No one else I love so much.

And as we dance across the floor,
How could I ever ask for more?
No other face in front of me
Could make me feel this way, you see.
No other eyes to gaze into
Could look at me the way yours do.
No other smile, no other hair,
None other thing found anywhere
Could match the joy of being there.

In all the world this much is true:
That no one else exists like you;
Nowhere to look, no place to go
To find another you, I know.
