the smell of fresh cut roses at a time like this would be heavenly

my life is a sweeping motion of fleeting moments and sweet whispers i fell in love with you as swiftly and slowly as a dream and into the abyss we settled together like sediments in rain puddles and you told me i was beautiful i fell in love with myself all the while examining every line on my face like they would fade out the next day i came to memorize the slope of my neck the crook of my nose and the bow atop my lip my beauty is resonant it sits on every word i say shines through every glance i give shocks those whom i touch exuberant, blinding i am sweet to the senses i am fierce fearsome fearless i am beautiful
