I Do Believe

i do believe,
that I am
falling
in
love

with you.

i love the way you speak,
the way you say those words
too much- when you don’t know what else there is.

the way you make me laugh-
awkward, funny, so precise.

your little quirks.

the way you just
make
me
smile.

the way we can talk for hours and
never
run out of things to
say.

too bad, though,
i can’t have you.

too bad, though,
she’s already got you.

i shouldn’t have waited-
shouldn’t have been the coward that i am.

should’ve taken the leap-
maybe it wouldn’t have happened this way.

i do believe i’m falling in love with you.
and there’s nothing i can do.
