Why I Love You
Hannah Powers
Your beauty is undefinable,
and yet these words burst out of my heart, crawl up out of my throat, and heave into your waiting face.
Your eyes are like my dog swimming in a pool of milk.
Your lips are the red of a clown's shiny nose.
Your skin is like an uncooked lobster, and your hair the hide of a prize winning boar.
I love you.
