Trying to be Single

Why did you suddenly appear on my iPad screen?
Although we never dated,
I still liked you,
But you ignored my like all of the others.

I tried being normal.
I can be single.
I was okay with being alone...
Until your picture crossed my iPad screen.

Valentines Day is coming soon.
It does not mean anything to me yet.
I love my family and friends,
But I've never had someone special.

We met in the summer.
We seemed to get along.
Our ways parted,
But I did not want to let you go.

I texted you one day and you answered back.
You'll never know how special that day was for me.
No guy has ever spent a whole day texting me.
Unless I start the conversation, you don't bother talking to me.

Our paths have crossed again.
I know they will continue to cross,
But unless you truly want to be my friend,
Please stay out of my life, so I can't constantly be reminded of what I don't have.

Your blond hair almost looks fake.
Your smile is charming.
Your personality is attractive,
But you can't see me.

Don't worry.
Only my closest friends and sister know about you.
I try to keep all of my crushes a secret
Because they never come true.

If you're not the one God has planned for me, please go.
I'll meet that man someday,
But you won't know what you missed.
I'm single for now, but not for long.
