Ocean

By Naima Averoff

Your eyes are heavenly 

The mix of greens, blues and teals mixed with a bit of warmth

It’s an abysmal ocean waiting to swallow me whole

Instead of eating me alive

Those eyes of yours make we feel as if I’m in the clouds

This must be heaven 

You lift me up,

When I’m with you I feel as light as a feather

Yet your hands ground me to the floor

Your smile is blinding

It is worth more than the brightest star

You truly are heavenly

Longing you is like loving the moon

You are so incredibly beautiful and lovely 

Yet you are unattainable
