beautiful

My eyes open
slowly
whiskey's footprints
on my brain
foggy
dully aching
exhausted
tell tale signs
of a night
well spent
The shapes around me
transitioning
through blurry
into focus
I see you
lying next to me
a perfectly shaped
greek sculpture
I feel you
lying warmly
in my arms
The room
though dimly lit
by the rainy morning
made brighter
by your presence
The sheet
barely drapes across
your flawless naked form
In that moment
I am overwhelmed
and feel as though
nothing has ever been
more beautiful
Then a subtle sadness
seeps in
as I realize
that despite your beauty
affecting every interaction
of your life
for good
and bad
you have no idea
how beautiful
you really are
and could be
