Skye :
She looked at him the way
He was the beginning of the end
The skin beneath his eyes
Seemed to crackle into starburst
His tall grass-green eyes were the cure
And the dimple near his eye
Was better carved than any sculpture
She did not want him at all
As she needed him, and his smile
That cracked open her tight vessel
And let all the light in
So she looked at him the way
He was better than any love song
Mark :
He smiled at her as if
She was the sky, raining stars
The gap between her teeth
Filled all the gaps in his world
Her red-painted nails were
The colour of love he felt
He swore if people were roses
She was the brightest sunflower
He would not love again, he knew
Even if he'd get old, with her he'd be
Winter, Autumn, summer and spring
So he smiled at her as if
It was a sin to love that much
