i told her
that her face looked like
liquid sunlight when
the glow of the lantern
touched her face.
she just laughed and asked me
what did i know about
liquid sunlight anyway?
i told him
that his eyes looked like
a fanned fire when
the glow of the lantern
touched his face.
he just smiled and told met
that he prefers my brown eyes
anyday.
