The lights cast a shadow
I feel no warmth
Everything is dark.
And then I see your face.
You chase away the darkness.

You make me smile,
I feel warmth rushing through me.
My heartbeat quickens
As I watch you.

I can't wait anymore
But you beat me to the punchline,
My darling sunshine,
We're together now,
Forever warm.

This is beautiful. I loved the simplicity of it... you didn't overuse your words. You simply expressed what felt to me genuine feeling, and it made this really relatable. Thanks for commenting on my art. Cant wait to read some of your other work.
