I stare into these deep, wonderful, almost magical portals, beckoning me to come in,

They capture my thoughts, and allow me to transcend into this state of blissful euphoria,

For a moment, I'm speechless; it's like I can't convey any emotions other than pure happiness,

I've been transported to a beautiful world that I don't need to imagine in my dreams because it's right in front of me,

I've found myself blindly walking down a path, guided by an unknown force that pushes me to continue,

Warm, soft giggling echoes inside my head and assures me of the beauty in everything around me,

The air around me is saturated in a heavenly scent that alleviates any stress that my over-anxious bones may hold,

A simple, rustic home stands in the distance, a tree looming over the woodwork of the house, almost like a guardian,

As I approach the house, I notice various characters carved into the massive trunk of the colossal tree,

Encased in a deeply carved heart were the initials "K" and "C", next to a date reading "5/8/13",

An overwhelming desire to enter the house comes over my being, and I'm unable to stop myself strolling up towards the house,

I take slow, quiet steps up onto the wide, southern style porch, and suddenly feel a sense of familiarity,

My eyes find themselves stuck on the simple, teal door that stood in front of me,

I grasped the doorknob; silver, and in the style of an elephant,

Upon twisting the ****, the world started to spin, everything I had seen prior to opening this door spun around me,

Phantasmagoric images of the tree and the path filled my head, and reached a point of ****** before suddenly coming to a halt,

As if I had woken from a dream, I found myself in a much more earthly setting, no longer standing on the porch of the house with the teal door,

I was looking into your eyes, with deep conviction, and you were laying in my arms looking up at me,

It occurred to me that I had gotten lost in your eyes; your beauty had brought me to such a fantastic place,

I then came to another realization: that world could have never been as wonderful as this world, for it was missing you,

And in that moment I knew what it was like to be happy, I knew what I had been looking for this whole time,

In that moment, it was you.
