I Want


I would choose you in your darkest day.

You make me smile even when you don't try.

My smile is the biggest when I'm with you.

I wait so long to see you in the day.

I try my hardest to not show that I'm jealous when you hang out with other girls but I do.

It hurts when you don't hug me anymore...

When you walk away, it makes me feel like I did something wrong.

I try not to pay attention to you when you walk by me.

I try not to always be the first one to say hi all the time.

I know that I may not be your first option...

But, God, I hope I'm not your last.

I hope and pray that you don't see me as just a "friend".

You know that saying 'to the moon and back', 

but explore a whole new galaxy for you.

I want you to be the one.

I want you to be it for me.

My stomach does backflips when I see you.

But it is such a pleasurabe pain.

Yes I want to be loved

but not just by someone...but by you.

Fully and completely by you.

I just want you.

And maybe I'll have to wait...

or maybe I will never have what I want.

 But that's okay, you're worth it.

I want you to be happy.
