Watching the Sunset.

Once again, while sitting next to you,
I was lost in your limitless eyes.
Cold wind blew upon my face,
and I saw as strands of your hair blew with the wind.
As though they belonged to it.

As they very well should.
Seeing that a beauty such as you
should belong to the earth,
and all its wonderment.

You defined and encompassed the
World around you.
The grass grew taller where you stepped,
the tree branches reached out for you,
and the waves of the sea flowed in your direction.

I was paralyzed by you that evening
as the sun set.

For there was no beauty that I had ever known
to hold the magic of the sunset’s horizon,
and all the streaming colors of light protruding;
that I saw when I looked into your 
Eyes.

I knew you were beautiful, 
but it was until I saw the sunset in your eyes
that I knew how beautiful you are,
and how much you compliment the world around you,
just be being there.
