This Time

You pulled me out of a rut
One I didn't realise I was stuck in,
All the way
From the other side of the world
Through your phone.
You've got me excited once more
Like last time,
Except this time it'll be different.

Because this time,
It's on my terms,
This time,
No one knows.
This time
I'm braver than before,
Because this time
It feels like just you
And I.
