If I were that type of girl

You know those girls who fall head over heels, who wear their hearts on their sleeves.

The ones who walk around with a smile like its holding in a secret; the smile never fading, sworn to always keep it.

Those girls with a daze in their eyes, no one knows what's going through their mind

But that faraway look tells us who's on it.

I've never been one of them, but if I were that type of girl I'd melt at every word that escaped from your mouth

Your lips, like piano keys, creating melodies with every movement

I'd kiss those lips, sending music through my body; sounds so beautiful that my heart begins to dance

I'd do everything I could to keep my heart in my chest at the moments you held me closest

Our bodies like millions of grains of sand, collapsing into each other, molding into one another, fitting perfectly we become one.

I'd close my eyes, running my hands over your skin, until I've memorized even the swirls of the letters that make up your tattoos

My fingers speaking love into every inch of your skin; you hear the depth of my affection with every touch

I've never been one of them, but if I were that type of girl I wouldn't tell you I love you.

I'd leap the gaps left behind by powerful earthquakes, escaping the fiery pits of this world we call home

I'd blow back hurricanes, exhaling with such a force that they diminish in an instant

I'd wrestle tornadoes, throwing them out of my way so I could make my way back to you

I'd let us fall from the stars just so we could climb back up, leaving the serenity of the sky to rediscover our love again and again.

I'd do all of these things twice over to prove you my love, but I swear I'm not that type of girl.
