Did you press your lips against mine?
Did you catch me when i fell?
Did you embrace my uncertainty?
Because i am shaking.

Did you feel love for the first time?
Did you look me in the eyes?
Did you see my soul deep down inside?
Or were you just an illusion?

I loved this poem so much! I loved when you said,

Did you embrace my uncertainty?

Because i am shaking.

That was my favorite part (:
