-I'm probably the coolest dork you'll ever meet.
-I'm 99% sure he doesn't like me, it's that 1% that keeps me hanging on.
-The woman came from a mans rib, not from his feet to be walked on,not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal, under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved

what to say?what to do?
how to say what I feel for you.
Do you notice how I grasp,
every moment with you to last?

Just to look into your eyes,
makes my heart dance with butterflies.
Will you care whats in my heart,
Should I chance to tear apart?

I feel you smile and gazing eyes,
and wonder why you walk on by.
Should i feel this strongly for you?
But the real question is...
Do you feel it too?
