I couldn't tell you when the moment was that I realized I wasn't falling for you But already deeply, hopelessly far gone. Maybe it was a certain way you laughed, or a sideways smile just for me, or a hand squeezed fast and tight, or a sweet soul melting kiss. I fell hard and forever. Nothing has ever been so easy.
It is only ever your name on my lips, Your face in my mind. Your company that I crave. I find all of life's rough edges, all melting and cutting less. I can't remember which candle, penny, or shooting star. That brought you crashing into my life. A dream I hope I never wake from.
I've been afraid of the world. Afraid of finality and failure. Afraid of loss and holes only people leave. Now I fear a life without you in it. Faith, love, and hope. Supposedly love is the best of these. I will give you them all along with the very best of me.
Forever will just be shy of enough, for all the love I can't hope to express. I'll try every cliche, every trope. All of it falling so totally short. Drink in all my minutes and hours For as long as you will take them. My time and soul is all I can give. Nothing has ever been so easy.
