Love
The thing about love
Is that it shows up
When you're not looking for it.
I stopped looking for someone to love.
Now here you are
Bringing out the me I thought was gone.
It started with a simple hello.
Now goodbye is hard
And I want to see you all the time.
It hasn't been this way for me
In a very long time.
I'm sorry if I do something wrong.
You just make me so nervous.
It's as if I'm in Elementary again,
Giving a special Valentine to my crush.
But it's not Valentine's Day,
Nor am I a small child.
And this feels like more than a crush.
Maybe I can believe again,
Allow myself to fall
Whether or not you catch me.
I'm going to try to love again.
Try not to get my heartbroken.
Try to become happy again.
