I can't help but notice a few things.
My black hair that shines and sparkles.
My peaches and cream skin that is soft to the touch.
My lips that are full of plumpness.
And my eyes.
My eyes that I once thought were dull. And boring.
My eyes that I would have traded for any other color like a food item from my elementary school lunch box.
But now I see,
they are much more than brown. But a bronze chocolate brought to life. They are deep and exotic. Lovely and under rated.
They are all I have of you.
All that I will ever have.
Like you left them behind.
