Just a portion of a grander scheme....

The sun turned orange today. The snow started to fall. I was sitting on that park bench when you came up behind me. You kissed me on the cheek then you sat down beside me. You told me how you love the way I bite my lower lip, and how you had been dying to give me our first kiss. You told me I looked beautiful in the lighting of the sunset. I knew you must be lying. I looked away from you and toward the sun. Crazy, he would be, the man who thought me beautiful; yet your eyes aren't the eyes of a lunatic. You have the most beautiful eyes. You gently placed your hand upon mine. I widened my fingers slightly as you slid yours in between them. We sat silent on the bench for several minutes, hand in hand, our eyes fixed upon the candy-colored horizon. You broke the silence with a whisper - and a confession. You told me you'd fallen in love with me the very first time you looked into my eyes - then knew it was real when you couldn't look away. You have the most beautiful eyes. You told me of how when I walk in the room, your heart takes hold of your tightened lungs and immediately begins to beat faster. You told me of how when my hand is in yours, it seems as if the world is revolving around us. you told me of how it feels when I play, how you long for the words to be sung about you, delicately written with you in mind. You told me of how when my lips meet your cheek, the sun and the moon and the stars all look down to watch our two souls collide in a kiss. You told me of how when you look in my eyes, there's a beautiful pain in the heart of your chest; a love-stricken aching that wants nothing more than to make you smile. you have the most beautiful smile. You told me you'd fallen to the depth of forever - said you'd do anything to make me feel the same. You said that you wish you could be everything I want. You said it like I somehow deserve it. Like my faults are mythical. Like you don't deserve me. You sat, contemplating the appearance of my eyes. you have the most beautiful eyes.
