You look like the sun

Has anyone ever told you that?

Your smile is addicting

Your laugh is like honey

And your humor like a key

Our conversations flow like a river

Your brown hair is messy

Is it soft? Tangly? Oily?

I want to touch it.

But I'm too greedy.

You're like porcelain

I don't want to hurt your feelings

I repeat your name in my head

Over and over and over

So that I don't forget your face

I squint every time I look at you

You look like the sun

You're radiant and beautiful

Do you know you're beautiful?

Absolutely beautiful

I don't want to hate you

A feeling that comes too easily for me

I hate that I like you

I hate that maybe I love you

And I hate it when you don't talk to me

If you asked me to destroy myself for you,

I wouldn't think twice

I want to kiss you

But you are the sun

And I'm Icarus

I want you so bad, 

In a way that is unhealthy

But you're so far away

And you keep going further away

I want to say sorry

If I ever did something wrong

Let me love you

Let me be near you

Being friends would suffice for me

Has anyone ever told you you're like the sun

And I'm the man that flew too close.
