Beyond Words

October 12, 2024 by James Larson Leave a Comment

LAWRENCE: I didn’t know what love at first sight was until I saw you. I thought it was just about wanting someone, wanting to do things with someone. But it’s more than that. It’s this immediate recognition of someone. Like when two separate notes come together to make a harmony. There’s a beauty to it that’s beyond words. And I don’t want to, or mean to, scare you off in any way. I’m… a bit nervous, to even be saying this.

But it’s almost like there’s a darkness inside me that always feels lighter when you’re around. Not like a burden or anything. It’s just the contrast. Like when the sun rises and pushes the night out. It’s beautiful. You’re… beautiful. I can’t stop looking at you. I can’t stop touching you. I can’t stop my mind racing about you. I’m old enough now I should have a handle on it. I should be rational. We should take it slow. But I’m beyond reason now. And it feels perfect.

Like a storm you want to be caught up in. When the sky turns deep dark blues and purples. The wind howls, the lighting shows itself, and the thunder is inside my chest. I never believed in love at first sight. But I don’t have to believe anymore… I know it exists, because I’ve felt it… with you.
