beauty

(you are)

By Sara Published 2 years ago • 1 min read

the green in your eyes

is the green of emeralds.

the white of your skin

is the white of porcelain.

the pink of your lips

is the hue of the sky at dusk.

the only place i could write of your beauty

is on the barren sheets of heaven

and my words would run dry

because there are too few.

i allowed my gaze

to only linger

because my eyes burned

from the fire in yours.

i can’t stop looking at you.
