this is about you

Dear girl that doesn’t know im in love with her,

Despite the major hints i keep dropping

I thought of you again today,

Because the sun was yellow and warm

And the way it felt against my skin

Is the way you feel against my heart

Dear girl that doesn’t know im in love with her,

Despite me all but telling you

I am mad i found you too late

Already in the arms of another

I am mad that he knows what it looks like

To watch you breathe as you dream

I am mad that he gets to know

Every dark and beautiful thought that comes into your mind

Dear girl that doesn’t know im in love with her,

Even though i keep writing it down

I think you’re amazing and i know that word

Is overused and a guilty cliche

But you, you define it

You epitomize it

I would never be worthy of such a love-

But i still want it anyway

Dear girl that doesn’t know im in love with her,

If you can see this

I think you might love me too.

sincerely yours,

emmett
