Is this love?
Could this be the thing that saves me?
Could you save me from myself?
I don’t know how I really feel,
But you're just so kind and sweet,
And maybe you like me, and I’ve never experienced that before.
Could you be someone that fixes my shattered heart?
I’ll give you the needle and thread but would you sew me together?
I have so many things I want to ask you,
And sure you might not be what I was anticipating,
But I’m smiling, and I don’t think I’ve felt this way before.
Maybe you like me and maybe I like you back,
I don’t completely know right now.
But I want to talk to you the way we’ve been,
I don’t notice if the hours past,
I’m talking to someone who’s sweet.
You’re like a light, shining through the shattered glass walls that surround me.
And maybe we don’t know each other fully,
But I want to know you fully.
I’ve never tried flirting before,
But with you, I have.
I’m interested I think,
There’s a color I’m seeing that I don’t know,
Some shades that are brighter then what I’ve seen before,
A drop of neon in my dull ocean.
I don’t know you as much as I want to.
And I’ve never even been in a relationship before.
But I’d be willing to try with you,
I’ve thought about you a lot,
And maybe I’m hopeful,
It feels so wrong, but I think I have hope.
I’ve never had hope before…
You.
