Shades of Brown

All shades

By Rachel BecklesPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I can’t believe how much I love those mahogany eyes of yours looking at me

And I can’t believe how much I love your never-ending lashes that curl slightly

I can’t believe how much I love the chocolate freckles lightly dusted in the middle of your face

And I can’t believe how much I love your button nose so nearly in the right place

I can’t believe how much I love your cinnamon brown skin that travels all around

And I can’t believe how much I love those two lips that smile at me when I’m down

I can’t believe how much I love that you make who I am just a little bit clearer

And all because I see you looking back, when I look in the mirror.
