Him. #1

I never knew How beautiful brown eyes were until I stared into his. 

I never knew that I liked high defined cheekbones until I purposely made him laugh just so I could admire him. 

I never knew tattoos looked so good on caramel brown skin. 

I never knew I could fall in love with him. 

 

 

I never ever knew you could lie with someone who isn’t the one you love. 

I never knew you could lie just to hear yourself lie because you know you’ll get away with it anyway. 

I never knew you could change your mind but not allow other to. 

I never knew you could make others do everything and anything you want but you never do anything in return for them. 

I never knew I would be this unappreciated. 

I never knew this could be done by him. 

 

But it now I know.
