My Nature Boy

His eyes are an ocean of blue and a forest of green

And when he looks at me

It's not a passing glance, not a disgusted glare

It's a gaze that lets me know I'm actually being seen


His soul is kind and gentle like a warm summer rain

And when he puts his arms around me

I just lie there 

and let the warmth wash away my pain


The rise and fall of his chest as he breathes

It's so subtly beautiful

Like the trees swaying in the breeze


Calm and collected

Peaceful and protected

My nature boy
