it’s always “i should’ve kissed you”
never “i did”
he’s always mine, but i’m never his

the longer i can’t have you,
the more i want you
you drift away and return
with just enough time
for me to fall

and thoughts of you run through my mind most nights
when i finally did kiss you,
opposed to dread
all the happiest notions filled my head
and when you smile my heart is light
for visions of you are what give me life
