I Want To Tell You

I want to cup your gentle face in my hands and tell you all of the endless wonders that I can see swimming in your eyes. I want to tell you the way I feel sunlight shine through our skin and clouds dance along our heads, as if we are skyscrapers. I want to tell you how each freckle on your body is a constellation yet to be mapped. I want to tell you how much you make my heart race with joy but also so it down, making me feel at home.  I want to tell you how I feel fluorescent yellow soar through my veins each time you laugh and I feel a smile spread across my face each time you do. I want to tell you how full of love and life you are, and how the universe cannot wait to see you paint across the horizon. I want to tell you that you are one of this galaxy’s most spectacular creations. I want to tell you how time goes by in slow motion when you are gone but when you are in my arms, the clock seems to pause and then fast forward. I want to tell you that your eyes are my new favorite color, each shade of bronze and basil. I want to tell you your arms feel like safest place I have been in years. I want to tell you forever doesn’t sounds so bad anymore, as long as I’m with you.

I want to tell you all of these things but every time I look into your eyes, I forget every thought I had. So much for “no chick flick moments”.
