I Heart You

by Kenzie   Feb 15, 2007


This was anything but ordinary.
When I met you, I despised you
You made every inch of my skin crawl
I really wanted nothing more than to never speak to you at all

But then things changed
One day we talked and I realized you weren't so bad
We joked a bit
Oh you made me smile

You found out the way I felt about your friend
And you tried to help things along between us
But that failed miserably
And we just became better friends.

I don't even know how many pointless nights
I spent sitting on that big comfy couch
We talked about stupid things
And we talked about those really important things
And the world just made a little more sense

I will never forget the first time someone accused us
They thought we were together
That took me by surprise
Sure, I had thought about it, but certainly nothing of the nature was true

I'm sure it seemed suspicious
The two of us so close
We always had stories of the nights we'd shared together
Who wouldn't suspect a romance between us

I knew for me I couldn't do that
You were in love with her
Or so I thought, so it seemed
And I tried very hard to think of you differently
You were my brother, my mentor

Oh what a lie I had been telling myself
How on earth could I think of you as a brother
When at night I came home and wished
That our goodbye hug had never ended

Now things have certainly changed.
I know you still love her, how could you not?
You spent a lot of your life with her
And she's shaped the person you've become
But not you don't call her your baby
She's not your own

Now sometimes you'll whisper sweet things in my ears
And sometimes you wrap me up safe in your arms
You put a smile on my face when you call me honey

I feel all secure thinking you're near
And losing you now is my biggest fear
I wouldn't call it love, but its more than a "like"
I guess the best way to explain it is this

You stole my heart
And I dont want it back
It's yours to keep
And Ill call it that
I heart you
