All smiles

I tried to explain it to you but there were really no words for what I felt. I feel completely safe and at home when I'm around you. I don't notice anyone else. It's like time stops for something. Giving me time to realize my affections for you are growing and I'm unable to stop it or react to it before it is too late. You're turned away from me having a normal conversation and I just look at you. You're my best friend. How can I enjoy another human being this deeply. You're smiling and fixing your hair. You don't even realize that you're stopping my brain process and stopping time from moving. You're just so effortlessly being yourself. And it's driving me so insane. What are you thinking about? Is it me? Is it something else? Just for a brief moment, I can just see the genuineness in your eyes, like you still have hope for the world and for love one day. Maybe you're just keeping your head up and smiling Even with all the pain and suffering you've gone through. And then you look at me and I see stars in your eyes. Maybe a whole galaxy in the way you look at me. Adoring my soul like no one else ever has before. And I smile back, the most amazing feeling stumbles through my body. I am unable to control the shape my mouth is making but I know it's smiling and I can't help but wonder if people see the Galaxy in my eyes too. I know it's there, I can feel it, I can feel my eyes starting to look differently at you then I ever have at anyone in my life, And then you look away again. And I realize soul mates are the galaxies and stars and seeing every god damned constellation when you lock eyes and can't help but smile because your soul is so truly and genuinely happy. Maybe even if I'm lucky enough you'll stay and we can stare into the never ending solar systems for a while
