I Could Look At You For Hours
Now, so suddenly.
You carry a halo around you.
The ones I don't used to see.
Everything. All at once.
Visibly, electrifying the layers of my skin.
Walking in unexpectedly smiling instantly at me.
Peace signs used to be overrated.
I couldn't help but stop and stare.
You bring in all shades of bright colors.
A masterpiece. A walking heavenly art.
Those tiny noises that you create.
Also, that nose scrunches you can only make.
The playing with my hand when you can't help but think.
All your little things and all of your nonsense.
I'll gladly memorize every one of them.
So if you ask one more time about why I stayed.
I could look at you for hours.
Days, Nights, Years.
I'll keep looking at you.
Even if you're cold to the bone.
