"i wanted to say something that you've never heard before.

i wanted to say something so true you can taste it, something so soft it echoes through your head like thunder, something so beautiful all the other words in the world sound like distant, muffled noises of nonsense.

i wanted to say something that no-one has ever said to you before and could never say again, because they would never make it sound as passionate and enticing.

but i couldn't

so i just shut my eyes, and tried to whisper these unspeakable stories into your lips as we kissed."
