I wrote it all out today:
all my biggest reasons,
using three words, eight letters in the tenth,
and it took a lot of caution
and almost not enough self-awareness
to not let my mouse slip
over the "send" button.
Because I don't think I'll tell you yet,
but I promise someday
that I'm going to say it:
I always breathe easiest
whenever you're around,
and nothing feels more natural
than your hands on my waist,
and I finally understand
what all of those cheesy songs
were actually talking about.
Mostly, though, soon I'll tell you
that even though I wouldn't exactly
know from experience,
I'm pretty sure this is what it feels like
to be in love with you.
