Accidentally

I don't know how it was that the clouds in my skies parted, and the moon illuminated the stars for you and me. But you know, they were twinkling in an almost knowing manner. That I would finally find it in me to appreciate their beauty. Because you taught me to slow down and to take time.

And I haven't figured out if it's your scent that's gotten into my head, blocking my senses off everything else; or if it's my head being incapable of shaking off those thoughts of you, it seems your presence never leaves mine.

When was it that you stepped into my world? For I detected not so much your presence as the first rays of dawn that you brought along. And so I no longer needed to hope, because then those hopes came to pass right before my eyes.

I'm still learning your affectionate ways; unapologetic and never ashamed. Now my vision is coloured with your love. Sometimes I ponder if all good things eventually come to an end. For I know that if ever you're not around, I could not see ice cream in the same way again.

More than all the wealth and achievement I could ever hope to gain, your companion would I gladly be.
