serendipity

e a r t h

-

electric sparks ran through my body
as her fingertips traced my skin
looking at her i couldn't help
but fall in love all over again

every single thing about her
from her laugh that
she's so insecure about
to her personality
which makes even
the dullest of days
a million times brighter

though there is something
about her that stands out
more than the rest
i have read many books
but never have i ever
come across a description
that did justice to her eyes

to think
that a bundle of alphabets
would be able to define
her eyes is just ridiculous

i could write pages and pages
i could write entire novels
about her eyes
but at the end of the day
no word
no sentence
no letter
can do justice to those eyes

her eyes are not salty caramel
they are not bitter coffee beans
nor are they like melted chocolate
they are the colour of earth

why describe them as
chocolate brown when they
are the thick brown barks
of evergreen forests

why describe them as the
colour of salty caramel when
they are the soft fertile soil
which is home to a
billion fragrant flowers

why describe them as
the colour of coffee beans
when they are the entire earth itself
home to entire dynasties

her gaze is as sharp
as hundreds of knights
wielding swords
and they have the power to
make even the bravest of men
cower in fright

i feel my heart tremble
i feel my fingers shake
my brain is begging me
to ask her to stop
yet i can never lower my gaze
i want to stare at them forever
they are that captivating

next time she
wishes that her eyes
were blue or green
i will gently remind her
that her eyes are not
just hues of brown
they are the earth
and everything in it

and just maybe
she will finally realise
just how beautiful they are.
