When I lift my head and meet your eyes

Everything in the world is put to shame;

Deepest of seas, widest of sapphire skies

Are all an insult for where is their flame?

You make the sun blush even at darkest of night,

The moon glow more with each upward stare;

Ironic how you'd pick up a sword in a fight

For the most deadly weapon you already wear.

I carefully look at you from across the fire

You answer me, holding my weakening glance

A smile - you know exactly what you are doing;

You expose me, reveal me, won't give me a chance.

I take a deep breath and crash like the waves

Feel myself powerlessly washing ashore;

I know I am helpless as I again drift back,

And tenderly drown in your blueness once more.
