Crushes are called crushes for a reason
They crush us in the mind, heart, body, and soul
They can either lift us up,
Or weigh us down
We don't know who we will get
We don't choose them
They don't choose us
Life chooses them for us
But does life choose us for them?
We'll never know until we find out
We'll never know to lift this weight off our hearts,
Until we say "hi" and get to know them
Crushes are often attractive on the outside,
Hoping they aren't unattractive on the inside
Crushes can deceive us,
Until we uncover for their truths
Crushes give us these heavy good feelings on our hearts,
That we often ignore our guts' bad warnings
Because crushes are that powerful,
They influence us,
In many ways
We don't know when we can get them to stop,
And snatch that power back
We don't choose our crushes
Our crushes don't choose us
Life chooses who will be our crushes
But does life choose us as their crushes?
If life doesn't choose us as crushes for our crushes,
Then we have been crushed
