We were talking and laughing so hard over dinner one cold December night.
It felt like I’ve known you for so long when it was actually the first time we went out.
My mind connected with yours like it never did with other people.
The kind of connection I needed then to bring me back to life.
It never occurred to me that we’d someday meet and spend time together.
Because though we’re under the same sky, we belong in different worlds.
It’s really amazing how someone who was just a stranger to you before,
Would suddenly be someone who’d mean so much to you.
Even until now I’m not sure what we were then.
What I’m sure of is that you made me feel butterflies again.
My heart became alive anew as I found my ability to share what’s in me once more.
It’s nice reminiscing about it,
Reliving every second, every minute of that winter night.
It can’t be real anymore but it’s still something I hold on to.
Two years ago was when I opened myself completely to you.
Sometimes my mind wishes I shouldn’t have.
My heart says otherwise.
Maybe it’s not harmful to hold on to the feelings I felt then.
Because it’s a reminder of how I am still capable to feel something for someone.
I’m not numb after all but in a way scared to experience it again.
