I Fall In Love

I fall in love, everytime I see your eyes,
Sparkling like sunshine behind summer skies.
When a smile breaks through, the world melts away,
Your eyes turn to crescents, lips whispering, “Stay.”

I fall in love, everytime I see you shine,
Chasing your dreams with a fire so divine.
The way you conquer goals, a fearless display,
Makes my heart race faster, falling deeper each day.

I fall in love, with your perfectly imperfect way,
The laugh lines crinkling at the corners each day.
The scattered thoughts that tumble from your tongue,
The way you trip and fumble, never a song unsung.

I fall in love, with the tears you try to hide,
The strength you wear like armor, pushed to the side.
When burdens weigh heavy, your voice starts to shake,
In my arms you crumble, a vulnerability I ache

I fall in love, with every breath I take,
With every sunrise, for your very sake.
The way you move, the words you choose to say,
In every moment, my love finds a new way.

And as I watch you, bathed in golden light,
I fall in love, with the future, holding you ever so tight.
