Falling in love; well at least falling for the person- the narrative of our love, a romance narrated from a distance — seen in third person. You’re the third person I find myself whispering, “I love you,” sharing so much about myself, sharing so much that it aches to be so personal.
Sometimes my words disappear under your breath; I’m fading away, and not feeling as myself; no longer existing as a person- impersonal.
I catch glimpses of uncertainty in your eyes, and I sense that my many personalities can be overwhelming- please don’t take it so personal. You sometimes feel diminished in their presence, as if you’re non-personal
Yet, as the day draws to a close, my greatest desire remains: to know you deeply and to call you, my person.
