unashamed

my thoughts keep returning to your eyes
i don't think i've ever seen that color before

i've always admired a gentle heart

i'm unashamed at how i stared at you 
i was memorizing the look on your face
you know, i nearly cried 
at the beauty of what was between us

i can remember how you smelled 
as i buried my face in your shoulder 
i can remember how i almost died 
as i realized that i was there 
with you
in your arms 

i don't think i will ever forget
that afternoon we spent together
being lazy in our bliss

and the color of your eyes
as you stared at me, unashamed
