Nothing makes you dissect yourself more completely than discovering you want someone to like you. A thousand internal worries rattle around my head all night. Trying to find all my flaws before you do. Life has had an easy time of keeping me low. so it's hard to tell where my good luck ends and you begin. Your eyes say safety, but your lips taste like danger. I guess this is what they call a calculated risk. I've grown old making the best of bad situations. You make me feel like I'm catching my breath. For now, I'm stuck between enjoying this moment and the one where I eventually drive it all away. More afraid that what you'll say is jump instead. I won't be able to stop myself from leaping. You make me want to tear a hole through every sunset. Scream at the sky and dance in the rain. Believe again, in all the happy endings. Even if it all burns down, in the end, we will just laugh madly and carry on. But I've known this since I heard you laugh, and again, and again, every time you say my name. We'll fall together, and maybe we'll fall to pieces. I'll be your parachute, and you be my safe place. We can sort it all out later or never at all. So just say so, we'll swing recklessly through every night. High on each other and completely consumed. Because you've crashed into me and lately, I'm not sure I care if we ever untangle.
