And that's all that matters
He kisses me quietly
Gently
Because it hasn't sunk in yet
Someone wants me
Someone loves me
And I love him back
And that's all that matters
I bury my face in his chest
And he kisses my forehead
He says everything's alright
I take a deep breath
And I let myself believe him
