He smiles at me
I have to return the smile
I barely know him
But it feels like we’ve known each other awhile
I feel my heart tugging for him
No matter how much I fight
I know I’m starting to like him
I know that it’s not right
But I can’t fight his power
He has control over me
Has me falling for him
Without trying, he has me
I don’t know how
I don’t know why
But he has won my heart
No matter how hard I try
To get away from him
I always get pulled back
I can’t escape him ever
Not even while I practice track
Trying to dodge him
Makes me see him more
I can’t fight it,
It’s like fighting in a war,
Hiding from the enemy
Calls them to come closer
They cross the lines
And creep only closer
But how dare I?
Compare him to an enemy?
He is but a friend
Who I want to understand me
He is that someone
That I could trust
Someone who could provide support
Someone who would help when I rust
I want to lean on him
Yet, lean the other way
I want to trust him
But I want to run away
No words can be spoken
Yet, hundreds at the same time
He keeps at a nice distance
Knows when I’m upset, every time
When I don’t want to talk
He doesn’t make me
Yet, he doesn’t take a walk
He just stands near by
Waiting to see what I’ll do
He is too nice, too kind
He must not be true
He respects me too much
I want to believe
But it’s too hard for me
I must leave
Before I get hurt anymore
I try to run
But I get pulled in more and more
He has too much power
How does he win me so?
He hurts me without wanting to
Is he friend or foe?
My heart is trapped
It has been stolen
But don’t call him a thief,
Yes, my heart he has token,
But only unintentionally
He means no harm
Yet, it is harm he causes
But I can’t hide from his charm
He doesn’t try to hurt me
Just tries to be a friend
Our conversations could carry on forever
With no end
When we say goodbye,
I hate walking away
I don’t want to leave him
I just want to stay
My heart wants him
My brain says not to
But even it is starting to like him
Even though he may not be true
He’s truer than others I have liked
Others try to get me to talk
When I’m upset, he just waits
If I want to talk,
He knows I will
It’s easy to fight someone
Who bugs you,
And easy to talk to one
Who just waits patiently
He understands me
Unlike others,
Who bother me
He waits by my side
Lets me understand he’s there
Stays at a respectable distance
His distance is quite fair
To us both,
Not too close
Yet, not too far
He is too kind
Means no mar
Trusting him is too easy
I usually trust so few
People, and it’s hard to trust others
That aren’t them or are new
But, then I met him
He seems like someone to trust
We carry a friendship
Which isn’t dust
We don’t talk much and often
But we aren’t in uncomfortable silence
We are friends that respect each other
We share absolutely no violence
He understands me
Like no other
Others bug me when I’m upset
He waits for me to talk, isn’t a bother
He makes my heart beat faster
I live because of him
I felt like I could kill myself
Then I thought of him
What would he think of suicide?
Would he think less of me?
He’d probably think I was messed up
I doubt he would respect me
He’s helped me feel better
With no words spoken from him
He knew I didn’t want to talk
But waited incase I needed him
He made me feel better
Through his respect
He could have bugged me
But he chose to give me respect
I’m glad he did
Because that only made things ok
I know I like him
Even though I don’t think it’s ok
I want to not depend on him
But he’s too nice and has too much power
And winning over my heart
He has become a tower
Leaning over me
Daring me to try
I love challenges
But these can make people want to die
I know he doesn’t want that
But he seems to be calling
Even though he is silent
He still manages to catch me when I’m falling
Oh, dear friend
Talk to me more
Fix my confusion
Ask me more
Let me know you are there
Talk to me tomorrow
And the day that follows
Even in the early morrow
Help me fix myself
Supply a shoulder for me
You are what I need
Help me from me
Protect me from myself
Oh, dear God, tell him,
I’m too weak myself
Tell him I need him
For that I cannot do
Let us both know, God
If it’s meant to be true
