I can't breathe when you're around, 

The first sight of you takes my breath away.
and it doesn't help how all that ever comes to my mind in these instances is how your eyes are not brown. No, they're not, people say they are but they're not. They're orange. Sunset orange. Ember orange. Maple orange. 
Autumn. 
You have autumn eyes that knock the air right out of my lungs.

This why I hate autumn,
Because just like the leaves,
I have no choice but to fall
