there’s something about the way your nose creases when you smile
the way your cheeks light up a bright red
and that subtle highlight on the right of ur eye glistens that much stronger
i hold my breath when i look at you
not wanting to miss a second of your beauty for something as insignificant as a breath of air
i stare at you like art
you are art
with your delicate intricacies
your presence so captivating
and i’ll keep staring until i run out of air to breath
