Disingenuous

Feedback Received!

Just got out of a relationship, realized I started crushing on a friend during said relationship so I wrote down how I felt. Title refers to me.

As cute as a kitten

As Sweet as a puppy

From your first smile I was smitten

An event that marked me unlucky

I can’t tell you the truth

I’m not “in love” with you

You’re not a lifeless doll on a shelf

You’re a human same as me

But we’re not meant to be

We’re in different walks of life

Your smile makes me crave the light

Of the facade you cast yourself in

And in your presence,

I fear to be swept up in its’ tide

You’re a moon in my night sky

It’s gentle radiance a distraction

A level of comfort, you’re not able to buy

This feeling, an infraction

Even considering, my inaction

So I’ll keep searching for my dawn

When I’ll possess my own sun,

And no longer need to run

The day I can call you friend

Without lying
