This has been on my mind lately
I’ve been walking in the crowded hallways of what used to be our high school, and I, like most people am wearing headphones. And I have this image of you wearing a black shirt, with jeans and beaten up janoski’s with very fucked up shoelaces.
And you always wore headphones, whenever we’d walk, whenever we’d discuss our endless thoughts, whenever we’d flirt, and I wish one simple question would have escaped my lips. “What are you listening to?” Because you never know.
Did you fall in love with me, while your favorite band played in the background, with a bad ass beat or a slow and simple melody?
The constant beat of my heart, the tap of your fingers against your thigh and the intimidating shaded blue of your eyes was enough of a melody, to make me love you.
