When I bent over your cheeks
I felt collapsed inside
Looking into your features
Your face was sealike
And my heart is shedding tears
Drop by drop
Little by little
Changing the look of the frills
And before circles are complete
I settled myself by you
As I might be..

I was taken aback by the first line, thinking of something entirely different. Very nicely done, though I would consider clarifying the first line for the readers who might think of another image to come to mind.

Thank you for your kind feelings. The first line symbolises the state of determination to realise one's identity through challenges
