its funny to think that this time
last year
you were nothing but a stranger
and now im here curled up in your arms like child
i never could have guessed that i would fall in love with your laugh
or your smile; or every single thing about you
last year i never stopped to think that i would be the one to fall for the colours of your autumn eyes
but now i stand here; wrapping my arms around you
breathing in your breathe and kissing your lips
but this time
last year
i had nobody but myself
and now im cuddled up against your chest listening to the lullaby of your heartbeat.
breathing in your scent of warm chai tea and summer
but last year i was alone
look at us; strangers who found each other in the course of 24 hours
and last year
i wouldnt have stopped to talk with you
its funny how much can change in just 365 days.
