Your Heart


My eyes are drowning in
Silhouettes and Pirouettes,
As your kisses fall at my feet.

We're standing at a corner,
Surrounded by
Streelight seranades

And heart break paradise,
Among a lyrical lie of
          pieces
            and
              Drenched Hopes
Hanging
  Out to
Dry.


You're lost in
Daises hung by ashes
    And roses 
tinted by Sparkles,
And you can see nothing but


Me.



Eyes that mirror the cracked edges of perfection
Stare into
Eyes that mirror the loss of confusion.

"Can you see anything?...

      Is it okay?"

And you say,
"I can see you're beautiful face.
 




And that's all that matters."

Butterflies sing at the passerby’s,
and electrocutions of iridescence
Saturate my heart and veins.

Perfection is drowning in my blood,
And your essence is hugging my soul.




And that's all that matters.


Author notes

I miss my old style. ):

For a contest with the prompt:
"You don't love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her."


The poem's about my silly boyfriend who isn't exactly romantic, but sometimes he says things that make me smile. (:
Like when he took his glasses off because they were bothering him. And then I had to leave, so we went downstairs to his front door to say goodnight.
And I asked if he could see anything without his glasses,
and completely unexpectedly, he says:
"I can see your beautiful face. And that's all that matters."



Awe.
Cute. Anyways.
Yeah. My poem.
