Peace begins with a smile


I promised I wouldn't be the sap who was obsessed with her boyfriend
yet here I am

I promised I wouldnt be that girl who talks goo goo nonsense to her love on the phone
yet here I am

I promised I wouldn't be like the couple I made fun of for showing too much PDA in public
yet here I am

I promised I wouldnt fall so hard that the risk of being hurt increased dramatically as he held my heart
yet here I am

I promised myself I would take things slow in a relationship and think about each step
yet here I am

I promised I wouldn't lose myself in the romance and keep base with reality
yet here I am

and here we are
perfectly together
perfectly in love
You are the reason the love songs finally make sense
