ALMOST

I woke up this morning and the sun’s shining through the window

and it made me think of you

You have no idea how something you say can stay in my mind for a long time

Listening to music feels bland as compared to your voice

I crave you in ways words can’t describe. I just want to be near you

Distance doesn’t bother me, you’re worth every second of me waiting

What bothers me is the fact that many people see you daily and don’t understand how lucky they are to see you with their very own eyes

You were never in my vocabulary

Until one day, you became the only word I know

You were never supposed to mean this much to me

I was never supposed to fall so hard

I could watch you for a minute and find thousands of things I like about you

I desire every inch of you —

Your eyes that stare through my soul,

Your well-groomed clean cut hair as black as the darkest night,

Your smile that puts me in a trance

Even the parts of you that I don’t understand yet

To this day, you still give me butterflies just by saying “Hi”

The entirety of your being just sends me pure bliss

Future never did have any certainty

There is no next time, no second chance, no rewind

I want to be the one you didn’t see coming

I don’t have much to offer —

But I can give you late nights, long hugs, sweet messages, a hand to hold, someone to care for and someone who will always be there for you

You’re clouding up my mind

I want you here with me like how I pictured you

To run into your arms like it’s my favorite place to go

To kiss you in the middle of an argument

To hold your hand and wander the streets

I can talk to hundreds of people in one day but none of them compare to the smile you can give me in a minute

You will always be my special person

Even without saying I love you
