The Day I knew I was in love with you I remember it like it was yesterday, because while that day flipped my world, for everyone else, it was just another Tuesday. It's silly, I had known you for maybe three months? Three months of texts, call, and stolen glances but I watched you one night as you slept and in that quiet moment, something shifted God it was scary, the way my heart stopped even for a second, as I tried to process. How could one person grow to mean everything in such a short, intense, incredible time? I muted the phone that night and I cried. I cried because it was terrifying to me The amount of space you had already taken up In my world, in my life, in my routine I cried because...I couldn't tell you about it. I couldn't tell you that I had fallen so hard. I had fallen so hard, so fast, so completely, that you'd most definitely look at me differently. So I keep these words, safe and sound, and maybe they'll never meet your eyes, or maybe you will stumble across them one day and know I've loved you this entire time.
