heart open far
honeyed love seeps from me
for the things i see,
his hair dark and swept away
and his collarbones' shadow
and his skin tone: olive
he sees but is blind
to the things i find most beautiful about myself
like the curls that dangle in front of my forehead
and the freckles splattered across my cheeks
his gaze only falls short
but maybe i love him the same
