I look at you and see a world in bloom,
Despite the dark and edgy style you wear;
Your eyes are like the earth, a deep brown room,
Beneath the elegant shadow of your hair.
Your lips are petals, pink as any rose
That ever grew within a hidden place,
A soft and natural light that simply glows
Across the quiet spirit of your face.
Your cheeks carry the flush of ripened fruit,
As bright as peaches in the summer heat,
A sweetness that is deep and absolute,
That makes the very air around you sweet.
Even your shoulders have a grace to show,
A strength and beauty in the way you stand;
You’re like a garden where the shadows grow,
The loveliest view in all the rugged land.
I’m caught between the velvet and the flame,
Just staring at the masterpiece I see;
A beauty that no single word can name,
That’s taken every breath away from me.
