shades of grey against a matte black sky, there were perfect visions dancing around the green of your eyes…i could have said so much but the silence was comfortable…it made me want to love you all over again.  your eyelashes that crossed over and under eachother, tangles of hair to protect your vision, vision that was already imperfect but you seemed not to mind.  there was no voice in my ears, no sounds of television or speeding cars.  there were crickets and a slow trickle of lake water.  there was a blanket underneath us, my head settled right on your chest, listening to the familiar beat of your heart…one that nursed me to sleep time and time again.

you calm me in a way no one else ever could, your face brings back memories from a not distant childhood. one you never experienced with me but i wish you had…growing up doesnt ever have to end, neither do fairy tales or nights where we blow bubbles instead of sleep early for work.  i want to take you into fields of tall grass and flowers and dance around with you until we fall to the ground weak at our knees.

there are no words to describe how much love i feel for you.
