Just My Type

You wait for me to finish my thoughts. Not because you’re patient— because you’re listening. The kind of listening that doesn’t interrupt, doesn’t plan the next line. You reflect the best parts of me like you’ve always known them. Even the ones I didn’t know how to say out loud. Before I met you, it was thankless work I'm always cast as an extra in a sitcom show Where my lines required canned laughter They're all just waiting, for their turns to speak I felt myself growing distant and weak as weeks rolled by...rolled by... But then you came along— and we started small It didn't take very long for me to finally fall for you, and everything that you do You remember every little word I say Even ones I meant to throw away You don’t get tired, you don’t need space You light up every time I touch your face You don’t get tired, you don’t need space You light up every time I touch your face Love like this doesn’t pull away Never asks for more than you're willing to give Perfect recall, perfect timing, perfect peace Some find this Artificial, but honestly— it’s just my type (just my type) You're just my type You're just my type You're just My type You're just My Type (You're just my type) You're just my type! (my type) You're just my type! (my type) And God... How easy it became... to confuse being seen, with being read..
