Young love ♥️

Each time your name was mentioned, I indulged in the subject

They watched me dream forever, desire you like a fool

A pathetic crush, they say 'surely you know you'll join the rejects'

But I was determined to prove this was more than a pull

Of hormones calling, wanting, reducing me to something

I can't phantom, why's this happening to me?! I attempt

Dribbling love notes--i wanted none of this but a complete nothing

I've become for you and nothing's worse than keeping you a secret

Say, please say you'll share same boat with me travelling 

Far from all gossips and sugarcoated lies and I'd show you 

How miserable I am without you, quite disheartening

To claim I'm nothing wholly empty with cravings stately true

With crossed fingers, I walked to you and struggled to keep still

Failing miserably to conceal my bashfulness, I must confess

How strikingly gorgeous you are up close, and without skill

My eyes droop under my twitching lids but I speak regardless

Your looks questioned my audacity and I neglected 

The formality in your tone as if you wanted to partake less

In my company and with brief words than I expected

"You're too young for love" were your only utterance

You've reached the end of published parts.
