Original Submission by Shiloh Trinity Sastri

YOU

I love your smile

It brightens my day

Brightens my world and makes the sun smile

You’re the beautiful river, the water that reflects

The moonlight under the willow tree

You’re the Wisteria between my fire and water

You’re the solar to my lunar

And the stem and colour to my flower

You’re the sweet to my sour

And the living proof of love and happiness

You’re my happiness

You’re the beauty to my beast

And the blood pumping my heart

Really…You are!
