Today. Poem by Bailey Burris

This was the first time my heart has ever beat this fast.
Who knew you would find me attractive, with my heart in a cast.
But I get so giddy, with you around me,
Like I’m on top of a mountain and you surround me.

I want to kiss you forever and ever
I want to hold your hand, like its my treasure
Because you are a diamond, it’s easy to see.
You shine brighter then anybody.

Im sorry for taking him, when you wanted him the most
Im sorry for forgetting you, when I said I wont
Every thing seems so different now.
But today was perfect, I don’t have a doubt.

Colsie, i used to tell you everything.
Now you are gone, theres nobody.
Why did you go, why did you leave?
Who else would listen to me?

I want to tell you, all the things I felt.
I want to keep you inside my belt.
So I can whisper secrets into your ear.
And pretend that you are always here

Back to my heart, and the things that I fear
And the feeling that I feel about you dear
You are not my sister, but if you lent me your ear
I’d tell the sweet things that I feel for you here

I don’t rightly know how to feel anymore
And I cant comprehend why you are not here
But I will not waist another tear
And I wont wait another year

Is there a way, I could fall in love again?
Is this my chance, a door open?
Are you the key, to my destiny?
Are you alone? Are you like me?
