When
I look
Into your
Eyes, what do you
See? a mirrored life
Masking tranquility.
Vanilla scented love keeps
Me close, intoxicating in
Its simplicity, flowing freely,
Marking days, the drumbeat of my
Life a silent echo, filling
The void with snippets of time
That continue to tell
Me that I love you.
Seen from afar,
I forget
That you
Breathe.
