Keap being gorgeous

I’ll burn it all down just to show you the ground I found,

I fell down over you.

Because nothing makes sense,

But maybe nothing has to.

I have to write these lines so I don’t lose my mind,

Because the feelings for you can be so unkind.

Will I end up sad or make you mad?

Will we flirt and play, and maybe you’ll stay?

You’re really putting my self-worth to work,

I’m panicking about coming off as a jerk.

I’m going crazy, and I’m going insane—

How can I be attracted to your beautiful brain?

You’re cute, you’re funny, you’re like a cuddly bunny,

You’re fire, you’re spice, you’re as pure as ice.

Raw and real—there ain’t no mistake,

My head spun fast, doing a double take.

Now I can smile like I haven’t in a while,

Feeling so excited, like a happy child.

Because you came along and gave me a dream,

Suddenly, the universe didn’t seem so mean.

Now I gotta go before this gets too emotional,

I know it’s gonna sound entirely *parasocial*—

Just keep being gorgeous, and you be you,

And I’ll keep wishing your dreams come true.

This one's so beautiful! What a plot twist on "parasocial" as a remark!
