Twin Flames
Two halves of one soul
Trying to find each other
and when they do
They're finally home
The most intense form of soulmates

Signs:

1. Instant recognition
2. Love at first sight
3. Unusual first meeting
4. Separated yet together
5. I know what you're thinking!
6. Spiritual awakening
7. A divine purpose
8. You can say anything to each other
9. Sex is sacred
10. Completeness

You fucking socket-punched me

I know
I wasn't supposed to hear the song
Damn Niall for sending it to me!

I wasn't prepared

That's an understatement
Hearing your voice,
listening to the lyrics,
it's like a punch in the stomach
I can't breathe
Everything comes flooding back Beginning to end

I've spent the last two years
trying my best to move on
Impossible
But I was doing better

I'm not actively trying to avoid you
It's not like I can anyway
Not when my ex
Is an old band member

I see you in
magazines
Interviews
Music videos

My stomach always flips
In that old familiar way
Butterflies
From just one look

The sound of your voice
Makes me remember
Everything

From that first moment
When I lay eyes on you
It was as if
an electrical shock
Went through my body
I remember it so clearly

I almost opened my mouth
To say
There you are!
As if we already knew each other
And I hadn't just peed on your shoe

My most embarrassing moment
So far
I can't imagine
That I would ever
Feel that mortified
Again

But you just giggled
I love the sound of that
Always have
From the first giggle I heard
To the last
It always filled me with such warmth

We bonded immediately
I never had that
with anyone else
That instant connection

I fell so fast
Dived
Head first
Without a parachute

How scared I was
That you wouldn't like me too
That I was the only one
Feeling too much
Too strong
I weren't
You were right there with me

We fell in love
While the whole world was watching
And I couldn't hide how I felt
Even though they told me to
I was a teenager
Mezmeried by everything you did
A single touch
Made my heart beat fast
I couldn't hide it
Even if I tried

And that's
what I'm reminded of
when I hear the first verse
of a song you wrote about us
Without the intention
of ever sharing it with me

We stayed up 'till six just watching shit tv in bed
Late night drive to Tescos to buy cigarettes and bread
I remember clearly how I turned to you and said
"I wish I met you later
I wish I met you later"
