I forget how beautiful he is /looking into his forest eyes, shaded by greens and browns, flecks of yellow sunlight streaming through / it's taken this long for me to see his  beauty and I'm ashamed / ashamed I didn't notice all of him the first night / I laid eyes on him with the fluorescent lights over our heads. / His handsome form hits me hard / knocks me off balance / if I were to be hit on the highway by an eighteen wheel truck, this is how I would imagine it feeling. / I need to feel his hands against my fragile cracking skin, burning heat through my paper thin body. / I fall apart without him and I crumble to the floor /  in his presence.
