The First Inspiration I've Had In What Seems Like Forever

I can't stop shaking
The more time passes since your last call
My fears grow stronger
And larger
And I can't continue to wait any longer
But it seems I have no choice
To wait for you
Something I have a feeling I have to get used to
Because well,
You are leaving soon...

Is it true?
What you said last night inside your car?
While we were wrapped in coats and blankets
Kissing under the most brilliant stars
I could have sworn you promised me forever
Or until happily ever after
I don't care which
But maybe it was the Sky
Making me dizzy and love sick...

Your words keep slurring together
From one sweet nothing to another
I can't decipher fantasy from reality
I can't tell winter from summer
My mind is all jumbled
It's rumbling
Crackling with electricity I have never felt before
Like sparks catching fire
And trust me, I want more...

But I can't seem to find the right words
Or the right syllables
Or synonyms
To explain how fast my heart skips
When you merely walk in
To a room
Can you imagine how I felt when I first saw your face?
When you were wearing that tan shirt
Beating Caleb in the face
Can you imagine how I felt when I first spoke to you?
Your hair all gelled
Absolutely cute
Can you imagine how I felt when you touched my burning lips?
Or took me to your room
How I felt when I woke to your kiss?

I feel as if I could write about you
Forever and ever and ever
But Fate says our forever, simply translates to never
Ask me, baby
Ask me how much I care?
And I'll tell you that no matter what is thrown in our direction
No matter what you say or do
How could I do anything more
Than continue loving you?
