____________

The bewitching lyrics of 'Perfect' rolled down smoothly from the broken disc.

Your hands were on my waist in a securing way as my arms wrapped around your neck, closing the gaps, our hips moved in sync.

Not just to dance, but to feel the ethereal moment of bliss.

Perfect.

Just like us.

Two unsolved puzzles ready to create a shape so different.

A shape of their own world where no one dared to enter.

Mysterious, foggy, yet surreal in its own way.

Tucking a loose strand of my brown curl, the way you looked at me as my heart fluttered with numerous butterflies.

It's in the eyes, always the eyes.

You looked at me like you just realized what love is.

Adoringly, affectionately you held me so close to your chest so that i could count your heartbeat.

Beating for me.

"I don't want to leave you, love." a tear slipped from your beautiful ocean orbs.

"Being alone was never hard before i met you."

The lone tear from my amber ones fell too.

"It's you. Because no one else makes sense. I fell for you and am still falling."

You gulped. I smiled.

"Fuck it. I love you."

You knew I didn't need to tell when my action was acted upon.

"I love you too, my Alex."

When my lips smashed against yours, moving fiercely like a hungry beast.

The world changes when eyes met.

So did ours.

We danced and danced.

Until the moon met its horizon.

Until the wind caressed the leafy banners.

Until the flowers blossomed.

Until the radio could make no more sounds.

Until we became one.

Our souls became attached.
