& every time I see that smile, Or hear your voice- Whether it be full of concern, Or radiating with joy- The ice that surrounds my heart. Slowly begins to melt away. & every time you tell me a story, Or share with me how your day went- The butterflies that once died in my stomach, Begin fluttering back to life. Slowly- one by one, they spread their wings and fly. & every time you smile at me, Like I am the best thing in the world- Or how you insist that I am beautiful, Even when I know I am not- I slowly begin feeling again- Happiness. Excitement. Love. You bring out the best side of me, Even when I would rather not show it. I would prefer you think I am a monster- It would make things easier. But here we are, Miles apart from each other's arms- & I can't help myself, Every single day I fall for you a little bit more. Just promise me one thing- Don't allow me to walk to the edge- & free fall into nothing. Catch me with your warm ebrace. Because I don't want you to end up being, Just another love song. That I cry my eyes out to every night. I want you to be the anchor that holds me firmly to the ground. I want you to be exactly who you are. Nothing more. Nothing less. Your smile actually meets your eyes, & your laugh is genuine. Please don't end up being love song.
