You're a streak of lightning ,
achingly beautiful yet extremely deadly at the same time .
The way your hands remain in your pockets at all times , or how your observant eyes seem to notice the little details or the way you prop your elbows on the desk , and place your face into your hands when you're deep in concentration . or the way you subtly glance at me from across the room , making me think it might've been a part of my imagination .
Or it could be your silent demeanor , or your noticeable presence when you enter a room .
But it can stop a beating heart & crush one's soul .
When you walk past me like i don't exist , when you stare past me as if i'm invisible , when you don't notice my efforts of grabbing your attention .
That's the moments in which my heart doesn't just break , it shatters .
A streak of lightning , that's what you are .
