A little something because I can't sleep.. because of a certain boy who refuses to leave my mind. An insight to my exaggerated nonexistent love life *sigh*
This work is mine, credits to me. Credits to Troye Sivan for a wonderful song.

Then I guess I was a fool huh?
I watched as time crept up on us and then there was no such thing as time.
I regret a lot of things. Three years I stood on the side waiting for a miracle. Anything at all. I stepped out of my comfort zone just to see you a little while longer.

I guess I was a fool.
A fool who watched you wrap your arms around her petite waist, holding her close to you. Wondering if I ever looked as beautiful as her, then would you notice me?

I guess I was a fool.
Letting my imagination get the best of me, with my chin propped on my arm I let myself drift. Forgetting everyone around me, the noise slowly dying down in my ears. Eyes only seeing you.

I guess I was a fool.
A single glance my way can have me smiling for the rest of the day. A look my way had chills running down my back, sparking hope and joy inside me. A simple smile gets me more head over heels, and it wasn't even aimed at me. Ridiculous.

I guess I was a fool.
Getting myself into situations I can barely handle just to see that beautiful face of yours. Losing all my morals and beliefs when it came down to you. Before I laughed at girls as they swooned at guys, never understanding how or why they would do it. But here I am. A total wreck, no right words came out to form a sentence, eyes wandering anywhere, head ducked low to avoid contact when we cross paths.

Those were my chances, I think to myself.

But I couldn't. 

I am a fool.
For hiding myself behind sweet nothings, leaving you confused as to who I really am. For not saying hello the first time I laid eyes on you. For not having the guts to do anything.

I am a fool now. 

Because time has disappeared, and everything stopped.

Here I am.. miles away from you. A new start. A new chance. Maybe this time I'll be smarter.
