You Overwhelm My Heart

Woke up today at 2 a.m.
to think of this boy again.
Which is crazy,
’cause I've never felt so much in my whole life
and I don't even know
what it is yet.

I open my eyes in the dark empty room with only stories to tell quietly,
to immediately think of you and die again,
realising what you did to me.

Part of me dies again as I choke on my tears and lose myself crying inside.
’Cause inside of me you have a special place in my heart that words can't describe.

Seriously,
I don't know what I cry for,
you make me happy in a way no one ever could before.

Maybe you overwhelmed me with everything you could,
your gentle words and tiny actions mean the world to me and everything they could.
