spilled ink

douze

it took me a while to realize that i was in love with you
it wasn't love at first sight,
and maybe that's because we were best friends at first
i realized when we were dancing in your kitchen to a song from one of our favorite bands,
while using brooms to act as guitars and the counter for drums.
we were clapping and singing loudly while butterflies erupted in my stomach when you laughed as i attempted to dance with mixed matched socks on
i was laughing so hard when you tried to twirl around and landed on your butt,
that happy tears rolled down my cheeks
i realized that i could be myself around you without worrying that you'd judge me
