Destiny

Karsten Turrey

I can't put into words what made My lip quiver when we kissed

 

It wasn't love the first time
Just a drunken night of bliss

 

I never knew a girl like you would fall for a goofball such as myself
It was quite surprising when I Realized we were face to face
It had been some time since a women was standing in that space you were half a year older than I was it a mistake? Did you trip and fall and your lips just landed
in that place?


However it happened,


it happened


and I couldn't have
asked for more


Later that night I lent you my coat you said it smelt like me
and you held it close

 

There has to be something between us

 

Collywobbles get the best of me every time my screen lights up from you texting me
My lip still quivers with every kiss could this be love from a
drunken night of bliss?


I laugh 'til

my stomach hurts

 

our birthdays are
six months apart


Your eyes skip the
beat of my heart


I call all your make up


Cover up


Because it hides your
True beauty's mark

 

We are together now

 

We sleep in the same bed
I love it when I wake up before you and get to watch you rest
You are so peaceful


So beautiful


But your hair is a mess
Sometimes you snore it just makes me love you more
A woman with such radiance can still be human and my lip
still quivers when we kiss
I wish the story ended here

 

But I must confess

 

There is a reason my lip quivers every time we kiss

 

All of a sudden distance grew
You had no time for me
I still had time for you

 

Then came the lies the tormenting of my mind the late nights and the "Iloveyouless" goodbyes


The cheating


The fighting


The stress


And the crying

 

I didn't know what to do
What could I do?

 

My lip quivered for you

 

I just wanted explanations
you said sorry walked out and that was the end of the conversation


You moved in with your sister
I drank to escape the feeling of despair


you never officially left me
but I got the point

 

We were nothing

 

Now I know why my lip
quivered when we kissed

 

It wasn't love on that
night of bliss

 

It was a warning I never heed

 

Telling me to turn the cheek
