Infatuation

Love

Just barely friends, we met not long ago.

There's just one thing you really need to know.

I have a crush on you, I think you're really sweet.

I'd love to see a movie with you and grab a bite to eat.



Maybe sometime soon I'll come out of my shell,

Holding this secret in has been pure hell.

There's something about you that makes my heart melt.

If only I had the courage to tell you how I felt.



What would you do if you knew just how I feel?

Would you return the feelings or not be able to deal?

Hopefully soon the truth will finally come out.

Then you'll see the real me and what I'm all about.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is exactly how I felt at the time I wrote this about someone who I care a lot for.  Nothing has happened between us, but just having him as a friend is enough for me.

I think this really sweet. You express your true feelings, thoughts, questions that you can't bring yourself to do orally. You really showed and reminded me of what it's like to genuinely want someone, love someone and not be able to speak up. I haven't been through this a whole lot, but once I was. Once, I was so in love with this guy that just talking and joking with him made my day. I was so in love, that a hug or a smile or anything at all from him was enough to complete me. I was so complete that for the first time when I got asked out I couldn't bring myself to speak. Orally impaired, I nodded my head and had the one kiss that connected my soul with his. I got so connected that I feel deeper and deeper into love. Having fallen utterly in love, I wound up breaking up with him when he moved. Breaking up with him wasn't for me, but him. It was for him because I didn't want to tie him down. I wanted him to be able to make friends, go out, etc. without feeling a responsibility, loyalty to me. In doing so, I lost the one guy I was complete, in love with. Funny how time changes some things, but not one's feelings or at least my own. I still love him and now I can't do anything about it. I don't have an address or a phone number or anything at all. So, try to do me a favor and if you honestly love him don't let go or give up.
