an empty room soon filled with many souls
traps us together once again.
i wish i had a choice but you're the only one.
no matter how many others walk by,
no matter the situation we are in,
i look at you and find comfort, a safe place.
i feel as if you bring out the true me.
not only myself, but someone i never even knew.
she studders over every single syllable,
and gramatically correct sentences turn into a jumbled mess.

eye contact makes me shiver.
if i hold it with you more than a split second,
i seem to melt into a pile of nothingness
words can't explain our connection.
heels over head explains my state,
and even though it hurts so much sometimes...
to see you happy with her,
happy is what you are, and in turn, so am i.

happy for myself? no, happy for you.
because you deserve the world.
more than that... the universe.

and you know as long as i need to be,
i'll be sitting with my head in the clouds, waiting.
