When I look at you

Your eyes are gorgeous
Like all of world’s pristine oceans
combined together to form two diamonds
and those two, staring right back at me.

I think of the fire in your heart
The ocean in your eyes
I think of how time flies
When I look at you.

I think of you crossing the Nile
I think of running mile upon mile,
To see your gorgeous smile
When I look at you.

I think of your strong willed mom
I think of your time traveling alone
I think of your ever moving home
When I look at you.

I think of your long, curly hair
I think of how to love and be fair
You shake my earth, water, and air
When I look at you.

I think of new, I think of old
I think of warmth, I think of cold
I think of strong, I think of bold
When I look you.

I think of calm and despair
I think of life as a pair
I think about how much I care
When I look at you.

I think of short, I think of tall.
I think of summer, I think of fall
I think of giving you my all
When I look at you.

I think of watching your hair fall
I think of your love for nature,
And, you sitting in it nice and tall
When I look at you.

I know, I stare.
When I look at you.

And, I smile
I smile to be so lucky
to have known you.

I smile for you, I smile for me.
I smile for whatever it’s going to be.

I smile for love, I smile for fear
I smile for what’s mine right now, right here.

I smile for what I lost, I smile for what I found
I smile because what goes around in life, comes back around.

I smile my laugh,
I smile my tears,
I smile my heart,
I smile away all my fears.

Because people like you are far and few.
I live, I die
When I look at you.
