Excellence Award in the 'Top Secret 2016' competition

Each day and each night.
I stare up at the sky.
As I journey longingly through my life.
But on one special night.
It is then I sight.
The greatest beauty of my life.
You.
Your smile is as radiant as the sun at its brightest.
And your eyes are as deep as a star- lit sky.
But it is your heart that catches my eye.
Purest of all.
Shinning in my sight.
Your beauty is beyond all measure.
And your heart is purer than the purest treasure.
But would you ever accept my plea to be one, forever with me.
