Maybe Someday... Poem by Elizabeth Muller

There is this boy
Who's running through my mind
From what I know so far
Guys like him are hard to find

Dear boy, I hope you know
How happy you make me
A simple smile is all I need
I'm overcome instantly

Gosh, this is hard because
There is so much to say
I want to tell you what you do
to me every single day

My day gets brighter
My eyes grow bigger
The world seems smaller
with just us two in it
My smile grows wider
As you get happier
the day goes slower
While you are absent
My hands get lonely
My skin gets colder
I start getting antsy
As the hours grow longer

My heart beats faster
With the sweet words you say
Or just stops completely
When you laugh a certain way

I'd stay awake for hours
Just to talk to you for minutes
I'd book the next flight over
to see you, in an instant

I'd pack up my belongings
and we'd run away forever
Just kidding, that's illogical
How silly just to think it

I even get excited
From that noise from KIK
You're like heroine or crack
or something I just can't quit

I know right now we're nothing
but maybe someday we'll be
Just figured I'd share with you my thoughts
Let you know what I'm thinking
