Beautiful yet so dim
I like how they smile
Always at me
All twinkling
But still oh so sad
I can't fathom why
Your hidden tears
They are such
A mystery to me
Your eyes glitter
When you grin wide
Bearing all your teeth
For once
It is intentional
Not an accident
Because you're laughing
Little lights dance
Constantly everywhere
"Swirling shades of blue
Slow-dancing in your eyes"
I like that quote
The song, too
I like the flecks
Bits of turquoise
The ones in your eyes
Deep inky shades of teal
They give you more
Of your character
Perfect imperfections
That's what they are
Pssh, like imperfection
Is possible with you
Do you know
That when you laugh
You squint a little?
It's wonderful
Because even if
You won't tell me
I know you're happy
And that makes me happy
And I love it
And I love you


I hope you liked it! Oh yes, the quote is from "There-For-You" by Flyleaf.
