let me be lonely
let me be lonely
had enough crying/bawling in jeeps this week
not with all the shit in the house, you know?
i dont know
ughhhh
no one came to save me anymore.
It was an afternoon like any other
Until you came into the room, as if God-sent
All of blandness of the day—washed away
The image of you, still imprinted on my memory
Your lips: lush as petals
—petals of a red rose in full bloom
Your eyes: dark, and round
Their depth: as immeasurable as the cosmos
In that moment, my heart stopped
In that moment, my mind raced
to utter a word, any word.
I desperately wanted to know
Your name, it must be as beautiful as you
and as sweet as your scent.
May I know your name?
May I call you by it?
In short, can I have your number? :)
