Yesterday I was haunted by you,
your careless laughter to cover everything,
every step you took in front of me
blind, without looking back.
Now I sit here wondering
why you decided to look
at me this way.
Now I sit here wondering
how your hands hold this well,
even more than they were made to do.
Now I sit here wondering
about all the gems of good in you
and how you overlook them.
Now I sit here thinking
that tomorrow when I miss you
you will deserve it.
Now I sit here wondering
how I got this lucky.
I know you don’t always want me to fall.
But tomorrow I will deserve to miss you.
