Have you ever looked at someone and just thought "oh my god she's the one"
no, you haven't
yea maybe you saw some girl and thought she was indescribable but you hadn't met her yet, you couldn't know she was the one
you know how you find out
you take every ounce of courage you have, every last drop, and you take the three steps that it takes to walk up to her.... of course by then you've used all your courage and you stand there blubbering like an idiot
but she laughs and you get a second shot
so you pick her up "around 9" at her place fixing your hair in your side view mirror even as you get out of the car
you hold your breath as you ring the doorbell
and it all comes rushing out the second she opens the door
because god damn it she looks amazing
and you smile
and fumble wordlessly for your keys and she laughs and brushes her hair back behind her ear
right about now you're starting to think you really like this girl
and then you finally go out
and you get to know her
and now
now you can start to think she's the one
and do you know how you can really tell she is
when everyday that thought never leaves your mind
she's the one
every morning when you wake up
every morning when she's standing at the counter with her tea in both hands and sleepily kisses you
every night as she sits excited next to you making you watch her favorite movie for the ten thousandth time
every second of your life you will think she's the one
that's the only way you truly know
and then the man on the bench stood up from next to me
"thank you for listening to me, I know you didn't have to"
he says and he walks away
the urn in his hand like he was still holding hers
