I wish I was there last night so I could have crawled into you
like I have crawled into myself so many other nights on my own.
I would have lightly pulled at the corners of your shirt sleeve
and I would have gently brushed your jaw line with my fingertips
and then I would have

I like your soft eyes, your quiet side
I even like your lack of confidence,
like when you want to kiss me
or when you pull your lips away and say,
"so...are we a thing?"
i don't know what we are, but i like whatever it is

what does it mean when we kiss all night
this isn't a poem

I guess I'd rather go back to sleep
so i can pretend you're still here next to me...
I'm having a hard time knowing whether that was all a dream
(you made it feel like a dream)

You should have kissed me at the waterfall
You should have kissed me under the blankets
You should have kissed me 12 or 20 times.....
But the one time you did kiss me..
Still left me dizzy

this is taking so long,
months
(but years, it seems)
(it seems I have known you for years)
and all I have wanted for these past few (years)
your hands on my waist
your lips touching mine
all I have wanted is your eyes to look into mine as you smile and say,
"Goodnight."

i have changed so much
and all i feel anymore are body movements
and butterflies when he looks into my eyes
and to my first flame,
i am sorry
sorry
sorry,
but also
i am not.

things change, life does that. but life is an open road and even my mom knows, "he'll fall in love with a better fit"
