Eyes

Your eyes

They remind me of the ocean

Maybe that's a little cliche

So how about this

Your eyes remind of tidal waves sweeping across land

The same way sirens pulled sailors to the shore

The same way the words I love you rolled off your tongue

The same way I fell in love with you

Your eyes

They remind me of the sky

But everyone says that

So how about this

Your eyes are like books

They told the story of cinderella

You could be my prince charming

My knight in shining armor

The one who saves me from constant torture

Maybe the first kiss wasn't the one that woke me up

It wasn't the one that showed me the real you.

And sometimes it hurt

But all I wanted was your smile

The one when we first met

The one that changed my mood like the days in fall

The one that only comes out during a joke or a long walk

I know you.

It's the worst part

I can tell when you're lying

By that crease on your forehead

I know when you think

Though it may not happen often

I know by the way your eyes squint

I'm in love with you

And this isn't an off and on kind of love

It's the love that calls at night just to let me know I AM loved

It's the kind of love that lets me know you'll always be mine

The kind of love you see in fairy tales

But as science has proven not everyone gets their happy ending

But here's an idea

Give me the pen

I want my happy ending

I want to be the rain when you're stranded in the desert

The light in the dark

The sun when it's cold outside

I want you to want me the same way I want cake after dinner

And if you don't want the same happy ending as me that's okay

I have you now...

And I'm not giving you up if I don't have too

Let's just say you to me is like

Cats and cat nip

You make me crazy

And I tell you I love you everyday because I know how it feels to go the day thinking no one loves you

I tell you your handsome all day because I know how hard it is to look in the mirror and hate the person looking back.

I tell you I love you because

I am in love with you.

I guess what I'm trying to say is

Picture this

Our happy ending

Let's go places

Let's move to illinois

Let's have kids.

Name them

Bob Lucy and Mark

Maybe if we are lucky they'll have your eyes.
