I want a cafe romance where I come in at the end of his shift every night and we sit and talk til the wee hours of the morning until my eyes are too weak to stay open

I want a bookstore romance where we both reach for the same novel and a sort of spark ignites from the touch of our hands.

I want a summer fling where we bump into each other and he becomes my personal tour guide, where we'd share our last kiss at the airport.

I want a high school romance where we're both so in love that it ruins everything else around us.

I want a broken love where we fight on stormy nights and I run out screaming and he comes after me and we forgive by kissing in the rain.

But really I just want someone to say "I really like you" because I just need to know that I can have my own kind of romance.

You shot me one of your carefree grins

Close your eyes and imagine climbing the tallest tree you can find and standing on tip toes on the smallest branch at the top with your arms stretched out for balance,

and imagine that giddy feeling in your stomach when you look down at the ground below,

that's how I feel talking to him.
