So cautious of the words that have hurt me before
But they fall out of me
and I'm happy
A soft earthquake runs through me
I dont think I've ever heard anything sweeter in my life
The way your sweet voice wraps around the words so gently
I froze though
So in love with you
So hesitant to mess it all up
But all I can think is to put a smile back on your lips, before I plant my own there
Like a seed I suppose, and a beginning, like a story.
This kiss
These words
The first
of so many more.
