Knowing You

       I came to your town empty hearted,

       I had learned my lesson in love.

       No one would ever fill the spaces,

       Of someone who fit me like a glove.



       Then, I met you for a second,

       And something moved me inside.

       Those empty spaces seemed to fill again,

       Calling to you, they opened wide.



       My chances were one in a million,

       My hopes were a thousand to one.

       My dreams had your love in my pocket,

       But reality left me with none.



       I settled for only your friendship,

       Though I wanted so very much more.

       You will always have my true love,

       Until you're ready to open up the door.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was very deep when I was a teenager and lived in quite the fairytale world when it came to crushes and first loves.

I found this very mature and well-worded for a teenager to have written. I think we all have the same feelings at times. Some of us admit it and some of us don't. You did a lovely job with this one.
