About This Quote

Iridescent is a word used to describe something that sparkles, glitters, or shines in a way that makes it stand out. The reference here is to people who are unique and special. When you find someone like that, you never want to stop loving them. You discover that there is no one quite like them.

No other person will ever be able to capture the light which they emit. Love can be likened to colors, for this person has caused all your other colors to take on new hues and shades. Love is an experience that you can’t simply explain or define with words.

There are many things about this person which are impossible to put into words, so every time you try, there are new facets of their beauty which you discover.
