One of the notes I can't send
<p>Hey baby, </p><p>You spoke of dates in places I don't think I've ever been to, and that's okay, I want that too. But you see, I also want you somewhere more humble, the little tea shop in my estate that means so much to me, with mosquitoes and bugs in the grass, drinking sweet tea under yellow lights. I want to take you to the rooftop of my old building. I want to see you there beneath the stars. I wonder if you'd kiss me.</p><p>There are so many things I wonder about you. I pray you don't notice them all. I wonder how you are with children, or if you'd get along with my brother. I wonder what you'd say if I told you I wonder these things. Knowing you, I can almost predict your answer.</p><p>You've taken over my senses, and the funny thing is, it doesn't feel like a takeover. I'm still in control. I'm letting it happen, and it's sweeter this way.</p><p>I'm playing the long game here, the one with high risks and little reward. More than anything, I want to know you, and for you to know me. Is that too intense?</p><p>I woke up this morning from a dream about you. I ran to our messages, hoping I'd find a reason to talk to you. I hide the way I feel in my texts. They're barely perceptible, but I hope you see them.</p><p>There are many things I could say about you, but I don't know you well enough yet to be bold with them. If things never grow beyond what they are now, it'll still shine brighter than anyone I've ever met.</p><p>Every minute, I hope you're thinking of me—that you see me when you close your eyes, that when you think of me, you smile, that you have to stop yourself from talking about me. I hope songs have started reminding you of me, and that you can't freaking wait to finish work just so you can text me.</p><p>Ugh. I'm so fucking stupid. </p>
