Or,
I might be sitting on that you are staring at. I might see you staring, and I might wave. I might get startled, once you approach me. I might blush if you complement me. I might tell you more than I've ever told before. I might laugh at things you'll say. I might sigh at story's you'll tell. I might have said yes. And you might fall. And I might have crossed my fingers when we promised it all.
I might fall for you, and you might fall too. And I might just finally say yes and I do. We might have ups, and we might have downs. And I might just not want to be around.
I might have left, but I'm back now. I might say "I won't leave you now."
I might wake up, from a bad dream. And I might sit and watch you sleep. I might get up, to get a drink. I might stair at the knives in the sink. I might think back to my dream. And I might grab a knife, and go back to sleep.
I might wake up, later that day. I might just lye in bed, and think of my ways. I might get up. I might grab the knife. And I might put it away for one more night. I might say "good morning" and give you a kiss. Then I think of all the good times we might miss.
I might become paranoid. I might be a bitch. I might have to stay away for reasons you shouldn't know. I might not go to the kitchen, and I might not grab the knife. I might decide to let you live, for the rest of our lives.
