Maka.Phi

I know ever other sentence I mutter is an apology.

And I don't mean to be such a **** up all the time, but I guess it just kinda happened.

...Like the "very" first time, I laid my eyes on you.

Uniformed crowds of people making their every which ways from the parking lots...

Your shirt pressed down to every corner, nice and neat.

And among that gaggling group of people your faint smile gripped my eyes full focus.

Until you peered up and saw my stare as you crossed the street

All I told my self was "If I ever get the chance to see her again I have to ask her out."

But you already know all this.

because that chance did end up falling in my lap.

And I bet right now you're wishing it hadn't...

I did not write this as an excuse for another apology.

Even though I owe you another one...

But because within all our precious moments, whether they be joyous, or tender, or furious, I soon succumb to the realization how blessed I am to be so stupid.

Because you're still here.

                                                  Miraculously

I don't think I ever did anything to deserve someone so unconditional. And I really take you for granted.

... Your someone that thinks I have talent.

... Someone who builds me up and believes in me.

And that's all I could ever ask for.

                                                  I'm so sorry.
