Radiant

July 2025

She had radiant brown skin,

So soft

that it felt heaven sent.

As if,

the sun came down

and gave her a kiss.

 

You look at her

and you begin to feel bliss,

a glimpse of something close to

pure, sweet happiness.

 

There's warmth beneath her glow.

A warmth that you can feel,

and one that shows.

 

It lives in the way she laughs,

so rich and care-free,

like it's been touched by stories that many eyes fail to see.

 

She's a rare light

that doesn't just shine,

she imprints,

she soaks into the crevices of your skin

and heals what you never spoke about.

 

She's a sunrise in human form,

not just seen,

but felt

in the quietest parts of your soul.
