When I finally told you,
I thought my feelings would leave.
I was sure that once you knew,
I would lose interest.
And yet here you are.
Proving me wrong once again.
I told you,
In hopes you'd leave my mind.
I thought I'd be able to swim up.
Escape these feelings of mine.
But I only sunk deeper and drowned
Into the profound ocean, called "you."
I keep reaching for the surface,
Yet it only feels pointless.
For I am bound by chains;
Chains where love reigns.
I'm unsure if it's love, though.
It's such a strong word, after all.
Are my feelings strong enough
For it to be called love?
I do not know.
But what I do know,
Is that I like you.
And that much is true.
