Sometimes I Still Look At You

Sometimes I Still Look At You

A Poem by Haley Lynn Thomas
"

I still believe in you...

"

Sometimes I still look at you

And I see that very first night

Sometimes I still look at you

And I see you lean in for that very first kiss

And I wish we could do it again

                                     

Sometimes when we're together

And your foot brushes mine underneath the table

Suddenly I'm back in that booth

Watching you as laugh and feeling myself smile

For what seems like the first time in a while

 

Sometimes just being with you

Is as natural as breathing

And sometimes just sitting beside you is enough

Sometimes I can stare into your eyes, not at your lips

But other times everything feels so incredibly wrong

 

Sometimes when you call me by my name

I wish you would call me beautiful again

Sometimes you'll bring up a memory

That seems so much older than it actually is

And sometimes I know we both wish we could go back to it

 

Sometimes I still look at you

And I see that very first day

Sometimes I still look at you

And I hear you stumble through your sweet ask

And sometimes I long to do it all over again


Sometimes just being with you

Feels like someday it might be enough

And sometimes when I look at you

I believe that we can whole again

Even if I believe we can never be the same
