did you see me? i was out of control laughing, joking, anything to keep from taking your hand locking your eyes and telling you what I'm feeling did you think it was odd? you used to know me but you didn't know me; my smile was more than "nice to see you" it was "god, I need you" so many excuses just to put my face near you while i imagined my breath upon your neck and my arms around you talking about something unrelated unremembered sitting across from you in my head my thoughts were on your eyes your smell the way your hair curled around your ear the shape of your mouth when you really smile how beautiful your ears were so i talked and you never knew how badly i needed to see you every single day with every look and every word there was never a time when i stood next to you that i did not think "i love you." © 2008, h e a t h . h o u s t o n |
