The sky exploded tonight:
Purple shards pierced through the night-kissed sky
leaving it exposed and vulnerable,
bestowing unspeakable beauty 
onto so many undeserving eyes;

Much like the concerned blue seriousness of your gaze
which knifed its way 
Through my twisted armor of self-reservations
to find a heart that has known no bound,
save for the quiet vigor 
that accompanies your careful smile.
