One year ago
one year ago,
i couldn’t push the last digit
of your phone number.
one year ago,
i couldn’t look you in the eye
when we spoke to each other.
now, i can’t stop staring at you.
one year ago,
my hand feared to reach out to you
scared to touch the comfort of your skin.
now, i hunger each day to rub your ear.
one year ago,
i never would’ve imagined
i’d find someone like you so early.
now, i can’t imagine finding someone new.
one year ago,
i was a stranger who you’ve passed in the halls
from class after class, day after day.
now, i’m a friend who walks with you, time after time.
one year ago,
i couldn’t say how i felt
everytime you were with me.
today, you know everything in my heart.
