"that would be nice"
I didn't respond to that message. I didn't respond, not because I had nothing to say, but because I had everything to say. Nice wasn't a fitting word to describe the way I felt at 12:54 am. Nice will never be the proper word to use when dreaming with your eyes open. No words could ever be used to describe the way it feel to talk to the person you love. I didn't respond to that message, not because I had nothing to say, but because I had everything to say. It was 12:55 am and I wanted to tell the story of the day I fell in love. It was 12:56 am and I wanted to make it clear that I didn't know what life even was until she was a part of mine. It was 12:57 am and I wanted to talk about the way our hands would feel together. It was 12:58 am and I wanted to plan a future with my eyes open. It was 12:59 am and I wanted to be loved back. It was 1 am, and I turned off my phone.
