Something New

You came out of nowhere
Swept me off my feet,
Manage to raise the bar,
Every time we meet.

At first I was shaken,
By someone so forward.
But by me you were taken,
And by you I was charmed.

You’re always trying to spoil me,
You’ve brought out my giggle.
I’d given up on being happy,
But then you made that your goal.

Now I blush when I walk,
Smile at the ground.
And every time we talk,
I marvel at what I’ve found.

Now all I play are love songs,
And I hum all the time.
Don’t know where you’ve been all along,
But now you’re always on my mind.

My friends now all make fun of me,
For liking a guy this much.
But it’s ok because honestly?
You’re worth all the jokes and such.

I wasn’t looking for anything,
But here I am with you.
And I couldn’t be more grateful,
And I hope you feel it too.

You talk about a future,
And it’s scary that I don’t feel scared.
Before you I was always unsure,
Didn’t know what it was like when someone cared.

So here’s to you,
You have my heart.
And here’s to our something new,
Thank you for giving me a fresh start.
