the universe took so much time

on you and

crafted you ever so precise

even your perfect scars

speak

beautiful volumes

that flow like a brook

when i gaze at you

in your blue shirt, that calculated look

from afar-

among fifty odd individuals

as you observe others

i see you

for the first time

from under the hood

of my shy lashes,

baby,

i wanna know you,

so, i

memorize your ways

for

forever and always
