and in that darkness
i made the best decision of my life;
to sit next to you
so i could lean over
and we could talk about our lives,
our families,
our friends.
and in that same darkness
i made the worst decision of my life;
to realize where we were
to feel the music stretch my heart
to see you in that dress
and not take you by your hand
and ask you to dance

and with my luck,
it probably would have made all the difference

and now i’m all alone
and i wish i would have leaned over
and said:
"i know i have just met you,
but in
one month
six days
four hours
and
twenty-six minutes
i will have fallen
completely and utterly
head over heels
in love with you"
