I look at you
and I see how your smile
outshines even the silver
of the moon.
I open my ears to you
and I hear how your laugh
brings the crash of the ocean
to me.
I bring your lips to mine
and not even the most fresh press of coffee
can compare to your lips.
And sure,
maybe this is all fun and games
and maybe I think too much
but I look at you
and wonder
if you will be a blessing
or a lesson.
