Love is Lightheaded
I guess my breathing is manual now.
That’s it
I found it
Do you feel it too?
Wait, let me just breathe.
Exhale…
Exhale…
How do you breathe?
This very second is scary.
Wait, no, it’s something else.
Just come a little closer.
Just a bit.
Wait no, too close.
I’ve gotta breathe.
The closer you get, the lighter I feel.
Weightless even.
I could fly or even float.
I wanna know your name.
Because if I knew that.
I’ll have something to hold onto.
Something to never let go of.
You over there
We just locked eyes.
No, I can’t stare.
I turn away
I’m too nervous.
I’ve gotta turn back around.
To look at you deeply.
I wonder
Did you even see me?
OK here goes.
Oh!
He’s gone.
Huh! What’s this i hear?
This close gentle whisper
This wind brushing my ear
“My name is…“
Inhale…
Wait, my mind skipped the most important part.
