I used to see everything in black and white
You introduced me to brown the moment I met your eyes
After that, the colors just flooded
I found pink in the lines of your lips
They were sweet and intoxicating
I met red underneath your touch against my skin
It was warm and loving
Blue was in your voice
It was calming and bubbly
With you every color seems to shine
The sky’s never gray  
I only see see sunsets and sunrises now
Thank you for showing me color again
Feeling in color or kaleidoscope

They say eyes are the windows to the soul
Brown eyes are like shimmering pools of honey and syrup filling waffles
Blue eyes are like frozen raindrops packed together in a crystal
Green eyes are like untouched forest floors covered in moss
Eyes can tell the best stories
They capture daydreams and play back memories like film
Eyes are the worst liars but also the best tricksters
The eyes are the window to the soul
If you wanna learn someone, look into their eyes
I wonder if you can read the writing in mine

Situated between the stars
A room filled with stardust  
Fingertips caressing stars
Hands gripping constellations
You’re a galaxy inside a vessel
Im still wishing I could learn everything about your universe
Saudade: feeling of longing for something that you love and which is lost.

You’re a force of nature. The wind had to stop and catch its breath after seeing you.

The sun has to squint in your presence.

Your voice stops the waves and sings the moon to sleep.

You tell thunder to be quiet and the skies turn blue.

Dancing with lightning and the lightning is you.
First line: 4:45 am in the middle of sleep

I hate the type of person I am
I love way too fast and way too hard
It’s a problem
Because I’m not saying I’d drop everything for you in a heartbeat but I’m definitely saying that
I would run around this earth 100 times backwards for the chance to be with you
I’m the type of person to wanna lay myself in front of you so you don’t have to walk on the ground
I’d empty an ocean a single cup at a time if it meant I could hear your voice say my name with “I love you” after
They say people fall in love
But it appears that I’m stuck in a never ending free fall
There is no gravity, there is only you pulling me into you
Why am I doing this to me

The idea of being with you is like dancing with lightning
Your voice sending shocks along my spine, making the hairs on my neck stand up
Every touch from your fingers a zap and a sizzle against my skin
With every meeting the dial turns up and the shock grows greater
You’re a graceful flow of electrify in a room
A river of overwhelming cosmic power
How will I weather her storm
Struck

I hate “you’re really sad over 1 person when there’s billions??”
Yes. Yes I am.
I hate that I gave them so much of myself and that I would do it again in a heartbeat.
We wish things were so simple.
It be like that
