It was unforeseen,
That my affection for you would grow,
Some declare you to be handsome,
Indeed, you are,
But I find "endearing" to be more fitting,
For it encapsulates you perfectly.
It articulates the way I observe your laughter,
Your smiles, and every emotion you convey.
I had my own ideal,
Who is a stark contrast to you,
So it was unanticipated,
That upon crossing paths with you,
None of that mattered anymore.
I cast aside my daydreams,
The expectations I harbored for a man,
Because if the choice is you,
I wouldn't hesitate to embrace it.
Brand me as visionless, world,
But I will persist in adoring you,
Even if the cosmos relentlessly advises caution.
