I love watching the way

You speak of the things you love.

The way your face lights up,

And your eyes set the room on fire.

I love the way your body

Moves as you get more excited,

And the smile that

Melts my entire body,

Expands past the corners

Of your eyes in order

To bless the ceiling.

I love the way you reach

For me when you notice

I stop listening half way through,

Because I can’t stop watching you.

You ask me, in turn,

How my day has been,

And all I can think is

It’s simply perfect…now.
