🩵 Her Eyes

I love

The way her eyes sparkle when talking about something she loves

Or focusing on something she enjoys

Or being free and at ease in the moment

Or being with someone she wants to be around

Light blue, clear, like the sky

I feel like I'm flying in,

I see them from the side, as she looks elsewhere, as we don't do eye contact, so ever we playfully look away, shy glance, playfully suss out, peer at each other from the side

(Or maybe that's just me?)

When the other looks away or is distracted

Like a tango, there is always some keep-away, yet nearer we draw with words, intent, actions.

(Or maybe that's just me?)

It's a beautiful and magical experience

To see her in her element

Captivated by something she loves

Unaware of how she sparkles,

How those eyes and her aura shine, welcome in, transform and transfix the world around her to listen

But it's a different kind of feeling

More profound

Those rare occasions

When her eyes meet mine and mine hers

As we clasp hands, too eyes hold,

When certain soft words are spoken and truths felt

That I consider sacred

Like each moment, of whatever kind, with her
