…she doesn’t wear any wings.

And the alarms go off in the head.
You’ve known forever what to do when this happens.
You know how to wait.
You know not to do this if it’s not right.
You know that you should never let anyone tell you “I love you,” against you.
You know how to brush it off even though you’re dying inside.
You’ve learned how to keep the tears back for the less deserving.
You know not to talk to strangers.
Not to let them talk you into getting closer.
And you know that promises are just words from one person to another, or many.
You know that we won’t be here forever.
But you know that you gotta soak in every breath in life.
You know that gleaming comes natural.
And you know that anyone daring to diminish that glaring smile has no place in that seat next to you.

And this isn’t a case of realizing what you had.
Because you’ve known it all along.
It’s a case of wondering whether or not you could be perfect for her.
But trying too hard to accomplish it.
And then attempting to live life knowing that you are indeed perfect but showing her the wrong way.
But by now she’s convinced you’re all wrong. You’re no place close to where she once held you.
But there’s some damn thing about you that makes me think twice.
Not because I’m doubted… but because you’re deserving of nothing less. (Beauty)
