When I look into the night filled sky 

I see not stars but, rather, complete and utter darkness

Fore all of the millions of star are to be found in your eyes

 

When I look upon the sunset it is merely a dying light to me

But, when I look upon your flushed cheeks

my mind sees all the dusky hues

 

The softness of the clouds look like jagged edges each time I touch your downy hair

And your skin each time it brushes against mine

Feels like the early summer breeze

 

And finally, your lips, the color of light coral

forever asleep in the ocean

So much like you will in my arms
