Fool

But I love you always
You could go for years without acknowledging my existence
And still I'd answer your telephone calls butterflies dancing in my stomach
Everything you said was lovely
Even when your words hurt me
Everything you said was lovely
You'd go on and on about your day and your beliefs and it didn't matter to me because I'd listen fully content in the way you found time to talk to me
I loved that you included me in your life
I was lucky to have a second of your time
And selfishly I'd like to have every second of your time to myself so I could describe to you in endless detail all the ways I love you
I'm so scared
Everything changes so rapidly
And if these changes include you leaving, what will I do?
Every day I find myself wondering these things
What if you decide to leave
Still, I know if you left me I'd never forget you
And if at any point you decided you wanted me again I'd accept you without hesitation
I guess that's what love is
Love makes us all fools
And I was the biggest fool of all
