It’s hard to remember you being foreign to me. The way your skin first felt, the way your lips first tasted. The first time I read the thoughts spelled out across your face; that I never would have thought you’d become a book with well turned pages. Like when you love a book so much that you can recall the lines word by word, but sometimes your mind runs ahead too fast and the storyline falters.
