Drunken Words

Sober Thoughts

By Deana FiorantePublished 7 years ago 1 min read

One drunken night, and one blurry ending. I sat and stared, hoping you would walk through the door and confess to me that I was the one for you.

Drink after drink, your smile and laugh became more embedded in my mind. Only after completely letting go, did I start to realize that you are my one and only.

Guys may come and go, but in the back of my mind your voice flows through my veins, calling my name.

It had been 2 months since I'd seen you last, and the pain and sadness in my heart made me lose control. So in my moment of bravery I typed out the words that have been on my lips since the first day we met.

"I love you" the text read. But whether I sent it or not, the words would forever lay heavy on my heart like a ton of bricks waiting to cave in.

Swoosh

There it goes. Gone. Spiraling through thousand of tiny technological pieces, lost in the world forever, and never to be taken back again.

But it never sent. Neither the words from my mouth, or the letters on the keyboard dared to be set free, in fear of the unknown.
