YOU.

(I found this some time ago on Tumblr and I really have to post this.)

-

I look for you everywhere I go,
hoping that I'll bump into you
and the weird thing is, I always find you.
Like there is a piece of you, that's here with me.
It's everywhere I go and it's everything that I see.

I see you on the crowded streets in my city,
In people's eyes,
in the smiles of passers-by,
I found you in the lyrics to my favourite song
and the melodies of others.

I see you in the sky in the happiest of days,
even in this big old city,
I can feel you walking next to me.
We're side by side and I need you.
You've made me everything
and everything reminds me of you.

And then everything goes and disappears and you're not there
and you'll never be there.

Everyone has that one unique person,
when no matter how shitty of a day it is or they're having,
just by seeing this person's face or hearing their voice,
it makes you smile
and for that split second, you forget about reality
and you're taken away to a made-up world in your head,
where it's just you and them.

And it's in that moment, when I know that I love you,
because I see the world in your eye and your eyes everywhere in the world.
It feels like you're so close but so far away,
but I don't just care,
because knowing that we're under the same sky makes me my day
and I keep looking up to the stars, hoping that you're doing the same.

I hope we meet somewhere out there,
somehow when the time is right, when god wants us to meet,
when I'm ready, when I'm not afraid to meet you,
afraid that I won't be enough, afraid of falling even more.

I look for you everywhere
and you are the person I will never stop looking for,
because what if you're in front of me,
the day that I might stop looking for you?
