eternity | vk

five

late evenings spent

at the coffee shop with you,

while the dimly lit table

illuminated your face,

in all its glory.

i saw your chiseled jaw,

fluttering eyelashes,

rosy pink lips

and your

eyes.

oh,

those eyes.

they were the warmth of a summer evening,

with peacock feathers

fanning out from your pupils,

blinking, dancing, and twinkling in the daylight,

drawing me in like honey with bees.

they weren't the stars,

the sun,

or the moon,

but they were so much more.

they were the galaxy

and everything beyond.

they were millions of galaxies

filled with shining stars and explosions,

so beautiful and bright

it hurts.
