Ordinary Magic

day was bright and sun was sunny
there was nothing extraordinary
on that day like any other
some overslept, some didn't bother and then
you stepped in and the circus stopped revolving
so much became clear, so much ceased to matter

didn’t dare to think, to move
to wonder or rationalise
how you made things happen
stop or vanish, with your eyes

I thought it’s complex
this otherworldly maze
but you just smiled
and it all fell into place
and then you stepped in
and the circus stopped revolving
so much became clear
so much ceased to matter

I felt like I was falling
falling, falling into you
intoxicated by the sweetness
with nothing to hold on to
our overlapping timelines
makes us spin and crash

and I felt like I was falling
falling, falling into you
without a sense of time or place
all fades but your sweet face

this ordinary magic
makes us spin and crash
falling in to you

day was bright and sun was sunny
there was nothing extraordinary
on that day like any other
some overslept, some didn't bother and then
you stepped in and the circus stopped revolving
so much became clear, so much ceased to matter
