A Poem I Wrote For You But Can't Work Up the Nerve to Show You
It's not like I'm in love
It'd just be nice to have someone & feel alive
I've been down & out so much I didn't realize
I have feelings still they didn't die
It's not like I'm in love, in fact we barely speak,
That's fine...
I can still remember how you'd look at me with golden eyes...
I wonder if you've held that stare, there's been some time between then and now and you and I, We might have felt that sting when feelings are weaponized but I bet you still shine
Just like that sunbeam on the bus that I would try to warm myself beside
And we would talk about the ways we'd wasted time
How I had spent my day lost & getting high
I wondered if it was that strange that you were always on my mind
I guess it can't be that bad cause I'm stuck like that again, tonight...
It's not like I'm in love, but having someone would be nice...
Always hated how I knew exactly what to say Except to girls like you who took my breath away, so I put it on a page...
