love is like a roller coaster

♥ thirty three ♥

sure, i've been in love before,
but this is different.
pining after someone that doesn't have a clock in their heart,
it's different than wanting someone who might actually want me back.
someone i could love without pain, without getting hurt over and over again.

with every word she says,
a shard of glass disappears.
every time she smiles at me,
my heart heals a bit more.
just hearing her voice is enough to push back my guilt at feeling loved.

it's so new.
it's so new.
it's wonderful.

she makes me feel beautiful.
she makes me feel hopeful.
she makes me feel confident.
she makes me feel happy.

maybe i haven't been in love before.
if this is what it's supposed to feel like,
i never want to go back.

i'm not used to feeling this safe with someone.
she is home,
and i want home to be with her.

don't let this all be a dream.
don't let me have false hope.
please, i want to be loved.
