All it took was a look, a soft smile paired with kind eyes. And I was gone.

Lost in the endless abyss that was her soul,

The crinkle near her eyes when she smiles,

The tinkling music of her laughter,

The softness of her skin.

I was lost.

Lost in her, that is.

Lost in soft touches, secret smiles. A secret only known by the two of us.

I knew I loved her, what else could this be?

She was mine. And I hers.

I worried what people would think, but these thoughts she silenced with a touch, a soft word, even a warm look.

And now, laying beside her, staring at her beauty, I can't believe I ever doubted us.

Doubted her.
