Night of January,
The 27th day exactly.
I'm too stunned to speak,
After I lost my control.
Trembling hands and warm cheeks,
It wasn't one-sided love after all.

"I already have a hunch that it's you"
My eyes widened.
"You don't think I might like you back?"
The world stopped in a sudden.

Butterflies in my stomach
Turned into dragons.
Loosing thy mind in aggressive fantasy
In reality I need to hang on.

As he enumerates the things he love about me,
And I tell him the things I did just for him to see me.
Reconciliation, all night explanation,
Revelations I'm not ready.
Two individuals and a realization,
I'm unaware that the stars aligned already.

After all the confusions and hesitations,
The truth lingers.
All I know that we are parallel lines,
Yet we're running in circles.

What a plot twist you were.
