your face
by: bekah pollard
your face your face your face holds so many treasures within
your skin I’ll try and think of some your eyes your soft
sharp blue eyes that always look gentle and settled yet open
just the right amount sometimes you bulge them out when
you’re excited or feeling goofy but that doesn’t rob them of
their beauty the lashes are nice a good length and moderate
thickness light brown strokes keeping dust and dirt out of
the blue I love looking at you from above when you’ve nestled your head
in the crook of my chest and I’m sitting up taller than you
I look down my arms holding you close and see how your
eyelashes top your eyes softly while fiery blue pokes through and
I see the round of your nose sitting on top of your perfect lips
your lips which curve and dip in such soft gestures yet look so
intentional like they’ve been right there on your face your whole life
and that little divot above your top lip I think it’s called a philtrum
well it’s lovely creating the perfect shadow cast over
your pouty and perfect mouth and don’t forget the little freckle
under your nose above your lip on the left side of your face there’s a lively
curved line that dances through the middle of your lips it curls up on
both ends in the corners and the way your lips feel when you kiss
me it’s unlike anything I’ve felt before the grand softness pulls me in
and loves my skin cushions my lips as if to say
I’m glad you’re here
