You are my secret melody: you were in my head during English class, and swam in my mind as I walked home. At the prom, while the cool kids were dancing, I stood by the wall and dreamt of you. As an adult, at work, I am enveloped in thoughts of you. And when I meet you, someday, I'm going to throw my arms around you and kiss you on the lips, deeply. |

Last line was originally "and kiss you deeply on the lips".
Wrote during evening and finished next morning.
It's fictional in the sense that it's a story about a person in highschool dreaming of finding the person they'll marry, but it's on her.
Partly inspired by the song "Give it" by Stars from the album North (2012).
Full song title is actually "Hold On When You Get Love and Let Go When You Give It".
Originally was written in present tense and without the words "As an adult", but I decided that making it past tense made the nostalgic aspect stronger.
