Beauty is a haphazard thing
It can’t be
Measured
As much as people say it can.
A glance
A touch
A light laugh
With the light
Hitting your eyes in just
That certain way I’m certain
These could never be
Measured.

Who cannot see this after the light hitting your eyes? Perfect. Loved it.
The absence of any kind of physical description of beauty makes this more beautiful than most love poems I've ever seen. I absolutely adore it.
Great work, tightly-knit and impactful.
