I took a photograph today.
My subject, you
Didn't suspect a thing.
Your whole body was relaxed,
Soft curls of hair hung in your eyes,
Your bare shoulders were illuminated,
Lines appeared around your smiling mouth,
Dimples dug into the apples of your cheeks.
So much happiness and love, filled your face.
Every hard-line softened in the morning light.
Your guard was lowered just for me,
As we laughed together in the morning sun.
You were so beautiful in that moment,
I couldn't resist capturing it forever.
I love that unsuspecting photograph.
