I LIKE YOU

When the Tyndall effect emerges,
Light takes form.
When you appear,
Heartbeat gains its definition.
Love blooms in every second.
When ripples spread on water,
A stone shatters a thousand layers of waves.
Love reflects a mirage.
When heatwaves roll in,
Beams etch ripples of love in water.
When golden light flashes,
Love paints its shape in memory.
When star trails streak across the night,
Affection elevates through time.
When a butterfly’s wings shake off stardust,
Monsoons flood palm lines like tides.
When an hourglass filters golden streams,
Memories slip away stealthily in streaming light.
When fireflies weave a flowing star map,
Every speck of light is an unsent goodnight.
When migratory birds trace routes in clouds,
Wings measure the latitude of longing again and again.
When moss creeps up memory’s brick wall,
We grow auroras in the cracks.
And all unspoken frequencies
Are traversing parallel universes at the speed of light—
I LIKE YOU.
In all possible worldlines,
We are always falling in love.
