Brown Eyes

Can we talk about brown eyes? Like, they're so pretty and seriously don't get enough credit and in books they're always described as either mud, dirt or chocolate and it's so mundane. Brown eyes are freaking gorgeous. Holy fish, they aren't even brown. They are copper against honey and they're sunlight through a bottle of whiskey and they are the color of earth after it rains. They're hazelnuts and gingerbread men and chocolate brownies and they're the feeling of the feeling of coming inside from the biting cold and wrapping yourself in a blanket on the sofa and they're cocoa and tea and coffee. They're cinnamon and ginger and cassia and the dust from a horse's hooves and they're so damn beautiful it blows my mind that people think they're common and boring.

i care btw. i care abt the song ur listening to or the bug u saw or how u just got outta the shower or how ur happily hanging out w ur friends or how ur kinda sad or how good was the meal u just had or ur fav character from an indie game nobody knows or if u chugged down some water. i always will

Happy Holidays :)

Happy holidays to you too! ☺️
