Pebble In the Sea

Her jacket softly brushed against itself, 
Painted a soft dull green, 
Her hair hid under her knitted woven hat, 
Showing the lower lobe of her ears, 
Where her earrings matched her bright white smile, 
A joyous occusion, 
To see her smile, 
Her eyes peeked through the clear lens of her thick black glasses, 
I can't help but think, 
Anything else would be an understatement, 
Would I think the same thing, 
Through someone else's eyes, 
Such music, 
The way her voice vocalized, 
The indentions left in her cheeks, 
Her skin wore a radiant brown, 
Beautiful in color, 
Her blush shown red as her cheeks could go no higher, 
Her smile stretched comfortably across her face, 
Leaving more to the imagination, 
If I gave my eyes to someone else, 
Would they see the same as I saw, 
No longer blind as I felt I could be myself, 
No longer a pebble in the sea of her eye

Beautiful. It doesn't matter if anyone else sees what you see.
