He knows her eyes from her photographs.
He is lost in them.
In a number of the treasured images they are open and smiling. In others they are mysterious and brooding. Sometimes they smoulder. In one or two they are soft and vulnerable. These touch him deeply.
.
He has no vocabulary to describe the colour and besides, it is not constant. They are molasses, and coffee, and cinnamon and toasted biscuits and burnt caramel and dark, amber honey.
.
They remind him of newly born, shining chestnuts, freshly emerged from their creamy skins.
.
Her eyes make him think of gorgeous, golden, gleaming antique wood, of raw opium, and of rich, crafted, leather …
.
And of looking deep into her soul while he slowly, tenderly, expertly caresses her perfect body with long, elegant, sensitive fingers.

Ah, that made me blush…
Also, I’m glad you didn’t leave. If you had then there would have been one less thing to look forward to.

Your words carry such a power, and you yield it with such care. And I love the postscript about the photo not doing her eyes justice.
