Description
I want youI want to see
all the colours
that you were born with
and have acquired with the time
the reds, the browns
Turquoise and the yellows sublime.
but most of all I want to see
the color of your heart.
I want to travel with you
in a shaky train with
windows that have no bars
and vendors at small, lost stations
who sell spilling cups of hope
and sandwiches filled with stars.
but most of all I want to sip
the froth of your life.
I want to work and toil
with you through the night
to finish this and finish that
and to make a list of things undone
and things undreamt
and do those things that people say “we can’t.”
but most of all I want to work
hard at making our love a success.
I want you to braid my hair
and hold my hand
and take me to a rollercoaster ride
we’ll sit on the very first seat
and I know you’ll be screaming
at my side.
but most of all I want you
to hold my hand every time I cry.
I want hope, and a spoonful of time
A dash of laughter and a tin of dreams
we can pack all of this in a bag
and take them out one by one
when life starts to be a drag.
but most of all I want
one strand of your hair and an eyelash.
I want life to be good.
To be fulfilling like a cup of
hot chocolate and a bun
and I want us to be together
in the cold sleet of monsoons and
the gleaming heat of the sun.
but most of all I want us to be together
when the hope starts to fade.
I want glory, faith and hope
Colors, dreams and pride
and a job to call my own.
To see my first grey hair come
and to see together the flowers bloom
from the seed that I had sown.
But most of all I want you.
all to myself.

That's a /really/ beautiful poem. I absolutely love the imagery, it's so specific and picturesque. The flow is also remarkable and moving. It sounds like a poem that would be in a literary magazine. Great job!
