Today,
you made my heart spin
caught in a whirlwind
of emotions.

Today,
you made me smile
for the first time
in a while.

Today,
you gave me a hope
tinted with sadness
and love.

Today,
you made me laugh
light as the feathers
of your hair.

Today,
you made me notice
the stunning blue
of your eyes.

Today,
you made me fall
even deeper into the pit
of love.

Tomorrow?
I wish for another day
so full and perfect,
as today.
