I once wrote a poem about how I could never love
That changed when I met you
Because after all the shit I've endured
After all the confusion about what love was
You showed me
You showed me it doesn't matter how far we are from each other
You showed me that it wasn't about sex
Unlike what I learned in my childhood
It was about the euphoric feeling you got when you saw each other
It was about craving the other person
It was about imagining a family with them
It was about how the sparks flew whenever we touched
I found love in those blue grey eyes
I found my heart in that smile
I found out this thing wasn't pain
I found out it's beautiful
It's perfect
I know why people crave for it
I know why people die for it
And I wish I could scream how much I love you from the rooftops
I wish you'd hear me
But at the same time I'm terrified you will
Because admitting I love you would be admitting I let myself go again
I don't want to get hurt again
Because I think this would be the last time I could
Before
I
Break
