Love,
I've never encountered such eyes that defines your entire soul.
How mischievous you are.
You fool everyone without them even guessing.
To others your eyes are of black in colour.
But they don't stay long enough to manifest their true colour.
Even if they think they are,
There is only one moment in a day,
At a certain angle,
And in a certain shade of light.
I was most opportune to have asked you to join me to witness the beauty of sunset.
Little did I know I was about to see the greatest beauty of all.
It wasn't the sun,
It wasn't orange.
It was brown,
So luminous and shining.
Pupils shrunk in awe as your eyes stared at the sun.
Mine could have only dilated at the unexpected beauty sitting beside me.
All you could see was the sun and orange.
All I could see was you and brown.
At that moment I've never felt so cheated and awestruck by a pair of eyes in my entire life.
