It happened kind of like this...

 I fell for her eyes because I could see a forever with her.

I could see galaxies within her pupils and it intrigued me so much that I never wanted to blink.

 Then I fell for her lips because each kiss was like drinking. 

Intoxicating and consuming and she has the sweetest lips I've ever tasted. 

Then I fell for her hands because when our hands held each other,

 it was a simple gesture that allowed me to hold the entire world, 

everything that I cared about and loved in my hand. 

I fell for her ears because they've heard things I've never told anyone.

 I fell for her because she knows me without even trying,

 she cares about me even though I'm broken and won't even care about myself.

 She loves me even when I can't and no one else does. 

She is the best person I know,

 she's the kindest, 

sweetest girl I've ever met. 

I fell for her and I'm lucky enough that she loved me back.
