Brown as autumn foliage
That's the color of your eyes
Though death coincides with its color's meaning
All I feel is warmth when I look at them
A warmth that reverberates through my core
That gives me a sense of stability, an assurance for
a future that feels like it's worth it
being with you gives me the endurance to
finish every responsibility I've been alloted.

The sincerity of your stare
subjects me to have higher standards
of my ability, yet picks me up when I fail miserably.
Assures me that I am perfect, and reminds me not to
leap farther than my legs can carry.
                                     But I never listen.
I can be silly, childish, and stupid: the real me
let it all hang loose, let it all go and still feel "beautiful"
because of those eyes that are so solid and true
that say always that you love me.
Probably more than mine do you.

I just wanted to say
                                  ... thank you.
I'm smitten.
