(69) — Summary

BaiRomantic

Her eyes danced with my own chocolate brown eyes, Our mouths fit together like long lost puzzle pieces that can't bare to part. I love her, all of her. Every last inch of her. When we aren't together I crave the long lasting taste she leaves me. We fight, just like any ordinary couple do. But we always end up pieced together again. Like a glued back together vase.

Bai is a love poem about a speaker who is completely wrapped up in another person. It starts with a small, intimate moment: eye contact, with her eyes "dancing" against the speaker's brown ones. From there it moves to kissing, which the speaker compares to puzzle pieces that were lost and have finally found each other.

The feeling is openly devoted. "All of her. Every last inch of her" sounds like someone who can't hold back, and the line about craving the lingering taste she leaves behind shows how physical and hungry that attachment is. When they're apart, the speaker feels the absence.

The ending adds some honesty. Couples fight, and these two do too, but they always come back together. The closing image of a vase glued back together is interesting because it admits the relationship has been broken and repaired. The mood is warm, passionate, and a little vulnerable, with love that has cracks but holds.
