she's never really understood the concept of love
how it was supposed to work
how long it took to happen
how to find it
for her
it seemed to happen slowly
with every look
and glance
something in her heart grew
when they spoke
it accelerated
an accelerando
with no ritardando
she used to think that perhaps it was just physical attraction
and maybe that was still a large part of it
but, she liked to think now
that she hadn't just fallen in love with the color of his eyes
a shade darker than topaz
a fraction lighter than lapis lazuli
she'd fallen in love with the soul behind the brilliant blue
she just hadn't been ready to admit to herself
