The Diary of a Nobody

The Pen and the Heart

My pen wanted to write

But my heart craved for it to be about you

All the little details you are

All the tiny little things that you do

That glimmer of light in your eyes

Shining behind those sweet, innocent smiles

Your cute little winks and those silly tricks you try


My pen wanted to describe

But my heart craved for it to be about you

Describe every feeling, every emotion you put me through

Your signature red rose after every good morning text

Staring at each other and laughing with no context

Coming up with cute little names and pulling each other's legs

All your insane promises, which somehow I know will be kept


My pen wanted to wonder

But my heart craved for it to be about you

Wonder how you understand all the tales told

How do they sit with you? How do they unfold?

In that tiny little head of yours, with the infinite creativity it holds

What makes you sad? What makes you happy? What makes you cringe? What do you find worthy?

Worthy of holding close, close to your heart

Cause I want to explore all the tiny hidden parts of you


My pen wanted to treasure

But my heart craved for it to be about you

Treasure your warmth within its ice-cold walls

The comfort of your words in those chaotic hours

Your dreams and ambitions and the future of ours

Everything planned, you're walking me down the path


This was not the plan, not how things were supposed to go

It's just been a few months, What did you do?

Not just my mind, but my heart and soul too

Everything was hijacked by one person, YOU


As I wondered, sitting in the blues

My pen began to realise

That my heart had already fallen in love with you
