Little Things

Yanglem Arjun Singh

It's just the way I look at myself
when the sun goes down
and i find myself calling each sunset
my absolute favourite.
It's just the way I look at the clouds
make eye contact with people
who play with their colours
to bring out the child in them.

It's just the way I look at the night sky
when the moon has more stories to tell than I thought I'd hear  or when the stars and I
exchange verses that we thought  
we would only ever keep to ourselves.

It's just the way I look at you
when you let me in
and share with me your idea of love.
It's just the way I look me in the eye
and make myself want to hold on a little longer
for in all ways of all
it's just the little things.
