I don’t know what to do when you call me beautiful
you say it so casually as you walk up, pressing a kiss to the side of my head, unaffected, as if loving me was something as simple as breathing air or breaking glass
I’m almost not even sure if its real, the reality is that I don’t know what its like to be loved simply, or really just loved
But you say beautiful and smile so widely with your slightly chapped lips tinted pink from my lipstick from when we kissed seconds before, and my chest aches, and I figure maybe I should’ve become a musician considering how loudly my heart beats to its own pathetic drum for you.
