The Eyes

baby royal navy sky, 
the clouds rolling by and she thinks 
she thinks that nothing could go wrong. 
kaleidoscope eyes 
no guitar picks 
feet in the grass 
this is what love feels like. 
how easy life could be neck craned up towards the heavens. 
this is knowing the difference between a song and a poem. 
when i look at love i feel something in me breathe deeply 
and when i look at that blue blue sky i sigh. 
blue jeans baggy t’s and my arms wrapped around you 
hoping you wont let me let go. 
i used to say i love you because his eyes were blue, 
but sitting here with you it is so easy to breathe 
i can't help but think about how everyday 
i find the sky, my love, in you.
