Goodnight, Love.

You stand,
Silent in the corner
Looking sharply at me through your glassy eyes
And I can do nothing but smile.
You speak-
Only one word-
And I cannot speak.
All I do is stutter.
Your hand touches mine,
Ever so slightly,
And my heart jumps.
I want nothing more then to be next to you.
Just to sit there and...
Watch you smile.
Let you take my breath away.
Let you have this heart to melt.
If you only knew,
Knew how much you deserve,
You could be flying right now.
You could be with someone who
Had a plan.
Who could promise you things.
Who wasn't labled with this wreckless abandon.
But instead,
You're sitting here
Next to ME.
God only knows why.
God only knows how.
But I thank Him every chance I get.
I thank him for you.
For everything that you are.
And more importantly,
Everything that you're not.
Goodnight, Love.
