We were visiting your parents for the weekend
We're adults but they made rules anyway
The first night you snuck into my bedroom and broke their rules anyway
The gentle pull into your chest and intertwining your legs with mine woke me up
We laid there a long time
Our lips less than an inch away from each other
Just breathing

You softly whispered to me
"You're beautiful"
Your eyes were closed.

I asked how you knew if you couldn't see me
You replied,
"I don't need eyes to know you are the most extraordinary woman I have ever seen"

I had never liked being called beautiful before
But coming from you it sounded so different...

I think I can get used to this.
