What, not Who


You still make my heart flutter When I try to look you in the eyes I can't They have so much more than the surface glitter They have strength Hurt Kindness Hidden behind a hard exterior I can't break So dramatic So intense For a boy! You know I think this An interrupted confession you got to experience The stutter, the hesitance, the glances Because I could never meet your eyes You deserve more A beautiful girl Tall Stable Her Not me But I cant help but imagine us Doing the idiocricies that fill my head Hugging Kissing Holding Security Nothing more Because of my impeding sexuality Perhaps its the security you make me feel that I fell in love with The never changing emotions you hold in your still gaze An emotion I wish I could hold An emotion so attractive, that I yearn Perhaps it is for the best you dont fall in love with me For I have fallen in love with what you are
