Heart Holder

His eyes were such a brilliant shade of blue.

A hue so much like the ocean that I wanted nothing more than to drown in them.

Never did the thought of breathing in the waves seem so satisfying.

He had this quiet strength about him that surrounded me like the softest of blankets.

It was warm and smelled of peace and serenity.

He made me want to be better just so that I would feel worthy of standing beside him.

A man so beautiful, so larger than life as, I could never even dream to compare.

He was everything I could never have.

His love was always just out of reach of my grasp and all I could do was admire him from a distance.

Like a dream that I could never remember the next morning.

He was an alluring fantasy that I could only hold in slumber.

It always ended the same. I, a mere mortal could never measure up to the god like entity that held my heart.
