Beeeeeeeeeeeeeep!!!


I turned around to find an empty space beside me, I panicked and for a minute there I honestly thought you left. I thought about last night and even though nothing happened, I found myself smiling at the thought of it almost happening. You were so sweet to stop even though you know I wanted it to happen. You knew it would've been a mistake if we pushed it.


I watched you come inside and you gave me your million dollar smile again.


"Hi.."

"Good morning.."

"I'm sorry I left, I got you coffee."

"Thanks.."


I took a sip from the cup of cappuccino you got me and let it linger around my mouth for a while before looking up at you and found you looking at me. I think it was at that moment we both knew we found each other because there were no words spoken but I felt that we both understood, and that was enough.


My head was screaming but my heart wasn't listening. I was blinded by you and the thought of us being together. I did not allow myself to listen to what my head was saying because I was happy, and even though I knew then that it would not last, I did not care. I was silly and willing to risk losing myself all for you.


Your sweet love has rescued my gray tongue. I felt no remorse I broke my beliefs, I rebelled against all that I have believed in for one chance at a fairytale with you. I considered you my glory, I would have given you everything that you asked of me.


I could hear the beautiful songs being sung again, all because of you.
