Are you a temporary smile?
When something new may be starting

It’s been three hours since we got off the phone.
Don’t think I’ve ever felt so high,
Whilst simultaneously feeling so alone.
I don’t know you; I won’t pretend to.
Let’s not imagine this is what it’s not.
But in one conversation my worlds a little askew.
You’re funny, you genuinely made me laugh.
And in a world full of anxiety and fear,
I wander if I’m finding my path.
Breathe, for fuck sake whats got in to me!
It’s only been a few hours,
I need to just leave it be.
You don’t have to fall in love,
Not on the first day,
This emotion you’re stuck in a habit of.
This could be a temporary smile,
So even if that's all it is,
Thanks for making me smile for a while.
