In The Event This Doesn't Fall Apart

by Shannon Lee Barry

You have this way of looking at me that stops my heart; it is the way, I think, I’ve always dreamed of being looked at. Like I hurt your eyes a little. Like you can’t believe your luck to be standing in front of me.

god when’s it my turn 😭

And I’m scared of that and how good it feels and how badly it could go but I’m not scared of you, more of how much I want it. How it’s been dormant in me for so long and then I see your face and I want it all; more nights out with drinks and me hanging on your arm, more mornings where you roll over and pull me into you, more of all of it and longer lasting and maybe even a guarantee, something I could count on. You feel like something I could count on.

i want that

Happiness is bigger and better with you. I guess that’s just love when it’s good.

i want to feel this so bad
