All it took me was those seven minutes.
Seven minutes of talking, the other fourteen seconds of realization.
The one I'm so afraid of every time I fall in love.
Fall in love so hard it's hard to fall out of it.
But I understand it every time.
Every time I hear myself talking, every single move I make, every time I look into the mirror.
When I look at the other people, the other girls, that's when I understand.
Sometimes being enough isn't just enough in someone else's sight, someone else's heart.
My heart keeps hoping though, hoping, praying and breaking every time I say to myself that it's just "the right person but the wrong time".
It's because every time I see the good in you, you make me believe it is the truth. So is it?
Was I just supposed to look you in the eyes the first time and say I love you the second I felt it? Would it be too early? Or too late? Was I good enough? Or was I not? Is it too bad I'm who I am? Or should I better not know?
