I know exactly what you see.
Just a guy with brown hair,
ordinary dark brown eyes,
and a southern drawl voice.
Quite the standard assumptions
that you tend to make.
I understand this though.
Just it's that I see
something so entirely different.
I see the same boy you see.
Dark brown hair
and deep brown eyes.
I hear that same
southern drawl.
It's just noticed in
a very different light.
To me those eyes sparkle.
Resonating with emotions;
love, hope, inspiration.
Brown eyes are beautiful.
Colored not with usual crayons,
but with the bark of willows.
The true ancients singing
deep within the winds.
That brown hair,
so normal to you.
Soft, amazing, inviting
it is to myself.
Qualities of gentleness
reverberating in a sense.
That down-south drawl:
that one that you hate.
It draws me in
with bass sounds ringing.
Low voice marked with love;
pulling me deep within
its rolling low state.
With a face of light,
built upon love.
I could not help but fall-
fall deep into love with him.
My love came not
from seeing perfection,
but from seeing what
no one else would.
My love came from noticing
that true perfection lies
within the imperfections.
Author notes
3. You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly.
^Above was my prompt^
Anyway, I wrote this about my boyfriend/best friend, David. No, he's not perfect. Far from it. But to me he's amazing all the same. I don't see him the same way anyone else does. This fit the quote perfectly and I've been meaning it write it for some time. (It's his birthday tomorrow anyway. I'll probably show it to him.)
I less than three you all!

PS. I might accept ideas on making this better, or I might just leave it as it. It really just depends. 
Most likely I will welcome any sugestions.
