I tried to make eye contact,
but looked away.
I attempted to hide the smile,
on my face.
My palms start to sweat,
and my hands start to shake.
These feelings are real,
not untrue or fake.
We fit together,
we're a perfect match.
Even if you were falling,
I promise I'd catch.
I'm glad we're together,
you and me.
It just makes sense,
like 1 4 3

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
