It wasn’t meant to be this way

His black eyes on mine

His gentle smile fading

It wasn’t meant to be something I did

I fell for him

Like rain from the sky

I never knew that one person could change everything

I never knew that life could be so perfect

I never knew that a single person could be so beautiful

Like the crashing of waves on a warm sunny morning

Or the gentle fall breeze that kisses your cheek

The cold crystals that glide from the clouds, glinting in the moonlight

He makes all these things that I used to love look small

Compared to him, his midnight eyes, and peaceful smile

The ocean, wind, and snow don’t measure up

With one look in his dark eyes I hear the crashing of the waves

With one quick brush of his hand I feel the breeze and leaves swirling around me

With one tiny kiss I know I’d feel the snow drifting down

He’s scarred my life

In the best way possible

I couldn’t live without him

And it hurts

Because . . .

He now has the power

To scar my heart
