disco beats around your curls and i lose myself
my body dances and my brain stops thinking and my heart beats and there is you
dancing like an idiot
and i wanna kiss you
and i don't know if we're really at that point yet
i feel so much taller around you and i kind of hate it
and bigger, in general
but i can't hate being around you
because god, you kind of take my breath away
you are an out of body experience
every second with you is that day at the bus stop
that moment we almost kissed
that minute we just stared at each other until we both chickened out
sometimes it hurts to look at you
that feeling in my gut that says, oh god, she could break my heart
but you don't feel like a broken heart
and maybe i just sound like a broken record at this point but christ almighty i really fucking love your hair
our end is inevitable
and it will hurt
but for now,
just dance with me
