Maybe it Could be More

maybe it's not about the number of shooting stars.

maybe it's not about the eyelash, the penny or 11:11.

maybe it's not about an awakening kiss, a tale as old as time or a magic carpet ride.

maybe it's not about the the hug, the kiss or the sex.

maybe it's not about the number of petals on a flower, the status chain letter or the twisting of a stem.

but maybe, just maybe...

it doesn't have to be. 

maybe, just maybe...

it could be so much more than everything put together.

it could be so much more than a passing thought, a look in your eye or a feeling in your stomach.

it could be so much more than your ripped jeans, my favourite dress or the shared hat. 

it could be so much more than your mesmerizing smile, intense eyes and hypnotic swag. 

it's a great shame we'll never find out.
