here with me

 I wish the way we felt about each other was enough.

Enough to cancel the rules.

Enough to forget the timing.

Enough to make the world look away-just for a second.

Because when I see your name pop up on my screen, my heart says yes before my mind can  remind me of all the no's.

And every time we laugh a little too long, every time we say goodbye a little too slowly I wonder… 

What if this could be real?

But we live in a world where love isn't always the answer.

Where feelings come second to circumstances.

And even though you feel like home,

we keep walking past each other like strangers with secrets.

Even now, I still catch myself thinking about you in the middle of grocery runs, in songs we’d  share, in conversations where your name stays silent but your presence feels loud.

I just wish

that the way we feel…

Was enough to let us have one moment-unapologetically ours.
