He asked her why she had walls built up
She told him because people always broke her heart.
He asked her if maybe
just maybe
he could build a door in her walls
She said yes and he smiled
but she wondered if he would build the door
just so he could have one foot out of it the whole time.

Excited fingertips
Tapping high notes
Just outside my door.
Their parallel delirium
dithered unshackled in the air.

“How could it be so funny?”
So many long years together
to snigger at the joke.
Such an extensive lifetime;
he still manages to makes her laugh.

Caught vague and ******.
I am the troll sullen in my cave.
Decrepit
The cave-dwelling brute,
scowling lone amid her haven.

Their cackles won’t stop
And my retreat is just a shelter
That that keeps out all the rest.

There has yet to be a time when I'm not reminded of you
when I'm not thinking of you
when I'm not wishing I was with you.
There has yet to be a time when I've regretted being with you
when I've wished for a different scenario
when I've wanted something else.
There has yet to be a time when I could say,
I didn't love you.
Because every moment of every day
I see things that are you
that make me think of you
that make me feel like something's missing beside me.
Every moment of every day
I love being able to know I'm yours
and you are mine.
Every moment of every day
I fall in love with you more and more.
There has yet to be a moment when you mean the world to me
because every day,
you become my world over and over again.

I didn't know
that falling in love hurt so I
fell
      fell
            fell
                  fell
faster than one could blink.

My cheeks always hurt after talking to you
because I can't look at you without my lips stretching into a smile.
My lips always ache after video chatting with you
because I hate knowing that my lips can't touch yours for another few days.
My heart always drops after you get into your car
because I know you've got to go.

My eyes set on him
and I could tell I was in love.
His eyes set on her
and I could tell he was in love too.

Someone tell him
Tell him quick
Tell him he's got to stop being so amazing
Because I'm
Falling
             Falling Hard

                           Falling Fast

                                         It's terrifying really...

It's like going down a rollercoaster,
the wind in your face,
the adrenaline pumping through your veins
as you go through the fast thrills of drops and loops.
It's like your foot falling asleep,
tingles and ****** at every inch of your skin,
the fear of it hurting
preventing from moving too fast.
It's like standing on a hill
on a warm sunny day,
arms spread out wide
as you feel the light cuddle your face.
It's beautiful.
It's wonderful.
It's....


**Love.

I could look at you for hours and not find anything wrong.
I could hear you talk passionately for days and still beg for more.
I could run my fingers through your hair over and over again and I would still crave it when I had to pull away.
I could love you more and more every single second of every single day.


I could.


No...


I will.

as you stand in front of sunsets
that have such brilliant colours knit in them?
Can I take your picture
at the moment when we met,
the snow gliding on the air to land perfectly on your face?
Can I take your picture
and place it all over my walls
so that everywhere I look,
I see the smile that warms my heart fully?
Can I take your picture
so that I can reminisce
and relive every happy moment we've had together?
Can I take your picture
so I can look at it and wonder
what could I have done better?
What could I have done that would've made you stay?
What could I have done
so that you would be asking me
*'can I take your picture'?
