Your features are discrete
But when your face is in the glow of a candle
Darkness shadowing endlessly behind you
Your eyes reflecting the flame
An artist yearns for his paintbrush to capture your moment of beauty
You're average
But when you laugh
A subtle giggle
Maybe a little chuckle
The precise pitches ringing in my ears like chimes on a windy day
A musician becomes jealous that he can't make such a wonderful sound
You're very busy
But you take a deep breath as everything is piled up
You look so calm especially for just breathing
I breath everyday and I will never look as peaceful as the sunset peaking below the earth
Every worker and every student wishes they had that calmness you possess
Your job is dull during the day
But in the morning you make cooking scrambled eggs look graceful
as you dance and sway to the radio
In the morning you seem fresh and new
Everyone wants your positivity
At night your tired
But when your tired your eyes get heavy and I love to watch you drift away into a land of dreams
In my dreams all I see is you
As you sleep I hope you dream the same as me and love yourself as much as I love you.
