4. details

I've grown up being very observant.

Every time I looked at something, I would notice things no one else did.

I've always liked spotting small details in everything.

And I'm glad to say that I'm still like this,

only thanks to you.

The details I searched for in portraits as a kid
are no different from the ones I search for in your face every time my eyes meet yours.

I love noticing those little things no one else notices

A portion of my brain is dedicated to storing your features.

Every pattern found in you,
I have it stored in my mind.

And every time I look at you,
my eyes highlight every characteristic.

And every time my eyes meet yours,
you light up my whole world,

like a little star
in an empty sky.
except nothing about you is small or little
especially your heart
(and your prettiness)

If I could stop time,
I would do it
only to stare at you
for an eternity,

because you're my favorite portrait,
and your eyes, your hair, your lips, your face
are the prettiest details
I've ever found.
