Hallway Crush

It was a hallway crush

Admiring from afar

But just looking at you made me blush

Now look at where we are

Our conversations were short

They felt even shorter because we didn't have many

Trying to avoid your glances became my favorite sport

Now I'd stare into your eyes all day if you'd let me

Trying to be your friend first was a mistake

Friends loved mocking me every time I talked about you

The fact that they could hold telling you over my head

To them was the icing on the cake

Springtime is when we found out

We had the same feelings

And it was obvious to both of us

Without a doubt

We talked for months and months

Around 5 to be precise

But September is when it changed

Our relationship reached new heights

Our friend was tired of being our middle ground

And I was tired of being scared

It was time to make things clear for the second time around

Even though  I was very unprepared

I did it anyway

No matter how scared and unprepared I was

I still knew what I had to say

Well, not really,

You know how it happened that day

For a while, I thought that maybe it was some weird form of fate

We met again in a better way

I will never figure it out

I just know that I'm happy

Happy I get to call you mine each and every day.
