It all started last year.
We had two classes together.
At first I took no notice of you.
You were just another random person,
But you started to grow on me.
By the end of school I had a crush on you.
Summer came and I met someone new.
I forgot all about you.
Summer came to a close and I was in a relationship.
School started and I had only caught a glimpse of you,
But that was enough.
All of those feelings came rushing back.
What could I do?
My question was soon answered.
You went out with my best friend,
But all the while you knew not of my secret.
To reach out and hold you.
To kiss and laugh and play with you.
For you to be mine and no one else's.
But to no avail; I could not open my mouth and speak those sacred words.
"I care and long for you, will you not be mine?"
So to this day I sit and smile; Whilst pretending to be nothing more than friends.
When I'd like nothing better than to scream out at the top of my lungs.
"I love you"
