Perfect to me

When skies are grey, when the sun disappears, when your eyes shine, when you look at me, that’s when I know you mean something to me.

I’ve been waiting for inspiration for so long and here you are in front of me, you have that walk that I admire, that look I adore and that confidence I wish I had. You create a happier world for me, just seeing you makes me fly where no one can catch me. You seem so deep sometimes that you intimidate even me. I can’t help it because every time my eyes meet yours, it feels like we are escaping this world.

You have the power to change my mood and make my heart melt simply through being you. I try to recite everything I love about you but words can’t seem to be enough to talk about you, you are beyond perfect to me; an amazing sculpture, a work of art and a happy rhythm to a song.

You have become an addiction, feeding my soul everything that it has been missing, all without a word spoken. I’m not expecting that fairy tale ending where we fall in love deeply and we live happily ever after. I prefer the games we keep playing: eye contact, body language…

I promised myself to only write a few lines but my fingers kept typing; translating every heartbeat I have and every drop of blood running through my veins.
