You came out of nowhere
But exactly when I needed you
I don't know if you knew I needed you
Or if god just sent you my way
But here you are
Dare I say perfect
Every box checked
Every want
Need
Desire
You seem to fill
And I don't know how you do it
You see past the walls
You waited and watched them crumble the longer you stayed
And that's just it
You stayed
I don't know why
I can't be what you want
There is nothing special about me
Yet
You stayed
You were patient with me when I needed it most
You were a steady presence
So much so that
I didn't recognize when I let my walls down
When I let you in
When I started to fall for you
As imperfect as I am
I never thought i'd stand a chance
Yet
One night
One moment
One kiss
Changed everything
You are so close
I can feel your touch imprinted on my skin
Yet
You seem so far away
So far above
I can't wrap my mind around you choosing me
You who know exactly what to say
You who encourages everything and everyone around you
You who knows several languages
You who has suffered as much as I have
Yet you reached your hand out
I tried persuading you to leave
I tried distancing myself
I tried my usual tactics that get people to leave
But all it did was pull you closer
I don't want you to be another lesson
I don't want you to leave
I want you to be mine
Which is selfish I know
But I can't help it
You are too good
So good
I ask how are you like this?
How can you be so perfect and not see it?
How can you see all your options and pick me? Where did you come from?
