9

You wake up with the first rays of sunlight.
Your brown eyes reflecting what I can't say. Reflecting what we both know.
My heart beating faster at the sight of you and your smile getting wider at the sight of me.
Your voice softly caressing my ear in a whisper.
Like a secret.

The sun at its peak. You and I together.
Laughing. Just like we used to when we used to be less than this.
Your heart beating faster because of who we are and my dreams growing bigger because of your hope.
My hands gently touching your hair.
Like velvet.

Twilight.
And your face looks so tired yet so gentle that all I want is to cup it in my hands and let you rest.
You breathe out your exhaustion. And I help you recover.
My heart beating faster because of your face and your pride becoming waker because of me.
Your eyes longinly search for mine and find them.
Like a treasure.

The sun fades away as we lay here, side by side.
And the moon makes your skin paler. It gives you a glow I can't help but staring at.
Our hearts beating faster. Us begginning to understand why.
My lips shyly kiss yours in a fragile but strong touch.
Like love.
