He's got a soul
We're just friends. I tell people that all the time but I can't seem to make it through a conversation without thinking about kissing you. I can't focus when you look at me like that. I can't breathe when we touch. We're just friends. Every time you say that a little piece of me dies because my skin is on fire burning to touch yours. It's chemical. It's beautiful. You say it's platonic. But how can I platonially know that you loved being kissed on the back of your shoulder, laying down on your driveway every time it storms because you love the smell of rain. Driving two hours just to dance in front of the headlights in some random place in the middle of nowhere because we make it feel like ours. I cannot bear the thought of watching you fall in love without me. But I'd support you even though the idea of you kissing someone else makes my skin crawl because all I've ever wanted is for you to find all the happiness in this world. Even though every time you get hurt I'm the one that picks up the piees and puts you back together. Even though every time they leave I'm the one who's still here. Even though you deserve a love that would stay. I would stay.
