And that would be my mistake
Knowing you would never know
the things I know can be
For stored in my memory are fragments of words never said
A story never told
It begins the day we met,
For you stared and I lingered
Little did I know the repercussions
For a story never told, this one had an ending
For as I was yours you were mine
Days filled with sunrises and happy endings
Sunsets with laughter and endless sunshine
For I would be your daylight
As you are my knight
Save me from my transgressions
As I fail myself before you
Cause before you I knew not of myself
Yet I find myself planning our forever
And then I realise
I'm not a hopeless romantic
Yet I am hopelessly in love with you
"girl what your name"
"hi, nice to meet you" I say
Dazzled by your light
Maybe I am a hopeless romantic
I stare back at you,
Then you smile at me
All the words unspoken coming to life
"Hi, my name is Awesome"
But then I wake up
Realizing what could have been
And so believing I might be a hopeless romantic
*Words written after 24 hours with no sleep,
A 6 hour drive,
A couple too many G&Ts,
Good laughs,
Broken hearts
And pining for a long remembered past.
It was 4:45am, the 1st morning of January 2018
