you close your eyes
as the light fades,
and dusk's brilliant colours
are making your golden hair glow.
the meadow around us
is filled with wildflowers,
but you're the only beauty
i have my eye on.
your amber dress
snaps in the wind,
and you smile
at my dumbstruck face
as i ache for your soul.
you — you were a plot twist
that i was not ready for.
