To Admit
when I see you it sets my heart afire with feelings so strong
I saw this mistake when I felt my chances slip away
Remember the excitement of the first day?
you were so happy to see me after so long...
the truth is every day since I feel the same way
but I'm so afraid to lose you I hid my heart away
I couldn't risk losing you if things went wrong
and now I feel I don't belong
and it kills my poor, green heart
as I feel us begin to drift apart
but I'll stand aside and leave you to him
to make you happy I'll gladly throw my feelings away
though the thought of this fills my eyes to the brim
and to have you someday, each night I still pray
but now, though my hope is growing dim
I feel that I must tell you anyway
I've been cut out of the circle he's in
and it hurts so much every day
so I can't let the chance pass me by again
this is everything I feel I have to say
about the what and why and how I love you
Why do I love you?
The ultimate question...
and the answer is so many things for so many reasons...
I love who you are; your character and your personality are truly unmatched
with your easy temperament, you always seem to get along with everyone
the kindness and respect you show for everyone is something i've never before come upon,
your undoubtable integrity and undying loyalty are things to be cherished
these are things I have tried to replicate in myself to become a better person
your positive and humorous attitude towards life, has got me attached
you and I have so much history, thats why I don't want it to be history
you're the one who really understands me, the one who's always there
of all the friends I know, you are the most dependable
no one has ever been so loyal and trustworthy
no one has ever shown so much love and care
and above all, no one has ever been so helpful
in my depression you kept me afloat, even when I felt like I was drowning
you saved me when I couldn't have made it by myself
you pulled me from the pit of despair when I felt like I was dying
you believed in me, even when I didn't believe in myself
you were still there when everyone else was leaving
you taught me that it's okay to just be myself
without you I wouldn't be where I am, yes, you saved me.
You are a little body with a big heart.
You spread happiness wherever you go
You are my mental definition of Beautiful
what are you?
You are contagious kindness
what are you?
and I struggle not to stare
at your cute, expressive face
and that gorgeous hair
beautiful flowing curls
or an adorably messy bun
it's positively distracting
for me (and everyone)
deep, emotional eyes, melt my heart at just a glance
the feeling I get when they look my way
sends adrenaline coursing through my veins
it only takes a second, to make my heart-rate dance
the most beautiful eyes on earth always make my day
everything else fades away until this is all that remains
and my attention is drawn to watermelon lips, looking oh so sweet
and how much I would give for yours and mine to meet
then you flash me one of your infectious smiles
which gets me day dreaming about a promise...
