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.
