"I never thought that you'd be the one to hold my heart
But you came along and you knocked me off the ground from the start."
"You put your arms around me, and I'm home"
- x -
I never thought that it'd be you. Not at all. But you've made such an impact on me, my life, my everything. You've just knocked me off my feet, and you've never really known. I bet you've never really paid that much attention to me to actually see through me and see what I feel. You've never seen how the simplest of your actions get to me, but maybe I'm just hiding my emotions well, maybe I've been able to keep you away from knocking my walls of secrecy down.
But I want you to see through them ever so badly.
You don't know how many times I've had enough. There are times where I just can't take it. I can't be around you, I can't even hear the simple utterance of your name because I'm trying to stop myself falling so quickly. The question is, will you catch me?
The answer to this is unknown to me, and I don't want to take the risk. I try to turn around and walk away, to save myself, but you possess some sort of magical quality or power that seems to make me change my mind, without you even knowing.
All of this makes me want to hide my emotions. I've tried so hard to never let you see the truth behind the fake relationship we had created for the world.
But when you put your arms around me, whether it be a casual slinging of your arm on my shoulder, or a proper hug, it makes me realise that I have never truly felt this strongly about anyone.
It makes me realise that maybe it could be worth the risk, worth falling hopelessly, because when you put your arms around me, I feel at home.
