Celio has always felt that the ocean stirs the heart, inspires the imagination and brings eternal joy to the soul. His idea of paradise is sitting quietly on the beach and letting the waves of the ocean help him come back to himself.
He cleared his throat and took a deep breath, hoping it would clear his head instead he simply got an intoxicating whiff of her scent, which was an odd combination of exotic lilies and sensible soap.
He Wanted Her in All Shades of Black and White
He Wanted Her on Days When She Felt More Than Enough or Nights When She Didn’t Feel Good Enough
Because Every Day He Counted the Days She’d Impacted, Starting with His

He Wanted Her in Ways That Rick of Innocence and Don’t Hurt to Touch
She Is One Million Feelings in One Single Feeling,
Her Eyes Could Swallow Stars, Galaxies, And Universe’s
He Hoped His Heart Would Be the Softest Place She Falls,
And That Their Love Be the Wildest Place She Runs

Nalani loved astronomy to the core. As she turned to tap Celio, she realized at that moment that despite a sky full of stars, she was staring at him. You know, stargazing was her favorite pastime, and all she saw was galaxies in Celio’s eyes.
She noticed Celio seemed distracted and lost in thought. His mind was wandering in the far land of neverland and her heart was beginning to shatter…

She couldn’t hold back any longer. She reached out and caressed his cheek.
“Are you okay?” She asked
His voice was strained like he was in a lot of pain.
His enamoring gaze was everything.
It breaks my heart to see you like this
You’ll always be my first thought
