But when she looks into his eyes, everyone disappears and the world stops spinning.

For a split second his hand brushes hers. Suddenly she is torn from the crust of the Earth.

The are flying high above,
They are shooting stars.

And when their lips meet,
They are infinite.
I don't even know. Watched *The Notebook* 12 too many times.

I have loved you. Many versions of you actually. There was the boy that danced away with my heart the first time i danced. It was a star lit night and I felt like the music was meant for just you and I. We waltzed to the strains of our heartbeats pounding in unison as you breathed in my nervous breaths and i breathed in your confidence.You knew what to say, you led me on a merry chase. I had the best first dance and you walked away without a second glance. I loved the friend that always had a hug for me too. Whenever I felt sad or alone you dropped everything and came to my rescue. You were the knight to my damsel and I was giddy when you held my hand. You held me close and kissed my hand like a gallant gentleman. Again you walked away when I was safely in my tower.
I miss the lover that stole my breath and replaced it with passion. I could only think, dream and want you. You took my mind ransom and intertwined my soul with yours. I was helpless to escape your embrace. You enchanted me with serenades and promises of forever. I vowed to be yours every day in every way. You left me at the altar. You were a misty dream that assaulted my senses. I can still feel you here. You are a part of my memories, a clinging vine that never sways with the wind. I have loved you from the start, all of you. Even now that my sanity is slipping away because I can not bear the pain, I can surely say that I have loved.

Do you ever wonder if the stars shine out for you?
Float down
Like autumn leaves
Hush now
Close your eyes before the sleep
And you're miles away
And yesterday you were here with me

Another tear
Another cry
Another place for us to die
It's not complicated
Autumn Leaves by Ed Sheeran. Such a beautiful song, thought I'd share the lyrics.

It's liberating,
The truth.

Telling what matters the most,
To those who matter the most.
No lie when they say that the truth will set you free.

I like him,
He likes her,
She likes him.

I should just get out of the way...

I hold my breath when he isn't around,
But I don't breathe when he's near.

I know that nothing will feel sweeter than that long, well deserved release.

But until then,
I need to survive the suffocation.

Lips chapped,
Hair a mess.
Love the feeling,
No one to impress.

They think their words don't hurt her.

They think she'll always be there.

They do.

*And she won't.
