She looked deep into his eyes
A stare that was as deep as the darkest depths of the sea
In the dark of night theirs was the only light
His eyes and hers
An eternity
He could see the entire universe
The milky moonlight made her sweet eyes look so distant
The shadowy room pulled her far away from the pillow where her head rested
A million stars deep in her pupils
Galaxies, universes away
He touched her face, was she really there?
So serene, so peaceful
His eyes flicked open
Her emerald green eyes so close
So real
So bright
Such a flash of color
Just as his hand fell to the pillow and the milky moonlight settled in around it.
