what i like most about you

is your golden locks of flames

or the vibrant smile that you wear without a shame.

at first glance i knew,

i fell hard.

the stars are quite charming, don't you think?

skating across the galaxy as they chant pleasant tunes

dulcet voices echoing throughout the cosmos’ vacant room.

but no matter how many symphonies they sing,

darling, you will always be my favorite. 

excitedly, your soul burns bright. 

words tumble out of your mouth in bold,

but you sing to me sweet praises you’ve never told a single soul.

i know i’m doing something right,

when you flash me a toothy smile as we orbit. 

you don’t seem to notice my shy eyes thrown your way. 

i’m lost in my thoughts listening to your sweet hum.

i hope when the solar eclipse comes

i’ll finally have the guts to say, 

“I love you.”
