'Hello...?'
(With your eyes.)


I don't even deserve to look upon your face,
Neither does anyone else.
And yet, it would be a crime
Not to look upon such a heavenly visage,
Riddled with the most perfect imperfections...

'I can't stand to exist in your world...'
(Can you come to mine?)


The sacred geometry of your jawline
All too inviting,
Each and every step you take
A vision out of one of my dreams;
The air of mystery
Far, far too intriguing...

'There's something... missing...'
(Could it be... you...?)


Your every breath divine;
Your entire being a riddle,
Riddled with the most beautiful sin
That ever came into being.

'Are you even real...?'
(Am I...?)


There is no time
(no such thing)
For goodbyes,
They way you said
'Hello...?'
(With your eyes.)

That was all we ever needed...

I agree with Starr - how  could this have no comments? It's so wonderfully done - and I really enjoy the mood setting as well. I love how you've managed to work these different sorts of feelings into one place, it's wrapped around like a dark harmony, and it's so gripping. I really love what you did here for the symbolism as well, I thought it was a really neat concept, and it stays with you when you're done reading it. Well done :glomp:
