"You
looked at me
like you always look at me
but there was something in the
corner of your eye that brought a sting
to my heart, like it skipped a beat and my breath
lost its balance. I could swear something changed in
the air like I saw you differently now, deeper maybe.
And then you touched my hand and I could swear
I lost my sight because you were all that I
could see, and I smiled because I knew
that I had fallen in love with you
but then my heart skipped
a beat again, because
what if you didn't
feel the same."

I guess what tore me apart was that I'd always wished for epic love stories even though they often ended with sad goodbyes, so when it happened to me I was caught a little off guard. I never expected to fall for you, but I did and then you left and I was heartbroken because it was too late. I could never confess to you what kicked inside my heart. I could never confess to you, that I was falling in love with you.

I'm falling asleep
The feeling of your lips lingers
Like stars on my cheek.
