Tim
I feel like I've loved you for years
but only now found you
Like I knew you before
but had to wait to keep you
All the other relationships, "loves," flings I've had
were just killing time
Teaching me how to appreciate you more
Sometimes when you open your mouth to speak
my words come out
I feel the dark, hardened bits of my heart chipping away
and I'm left whole & new
I'm finally comfortable falling asleep
next to someone else
but only now found you
Like I knew you before
but had to wait to keep you
All the other relationships, "loves," flings I've had
were just killing time
Teaching me how to appreciate you more
Sometimes when you open your mouth to speak
my words come out
I feel the dark, hardened bits of my heart chipping away
and I'm left whole & new
I'm finally comfortable falling asleep
next to someone else
