Natural Disasters
You have always been
natural.
For three years, our words were
flowing, regardless of the
time between them;
you were easy to
navigate, I could look at you and
home
didn´t seem so
far.
Now, I´m
looking at you
again.
You´re sitting across from
me, staring a the
carousel to the
right;
we´re surrounded by the
bustling of Saturday night
Christmas shopping, it´s incredibly
loud, but
something about the reflection of
fairy lights in your eyes speaks of
softness, of
3-am light rain, of
empty beaches in the
morning, of
nature´s peace,
I look at you and the
butterflies when you
smirk at me don´t seem so
foreign.
I still get
nervous, I´m still a little too shy to
ask you, to
tell you, but something here just feels
right, something in the way you have control of my
laughter, in the
warmth
of your body next to
mine, in the
high of
falling for my
best friend.
So here I am,
crashing
into you, I´m hoping for the
best with this collision;
it´s no
disaster, but something about this certainly seems
natural.
