I'm in love with you,

that's the only way I can describe it.

The feeling you get in your gut when someone is so important to you,

that you will spend every waking moment to make them happy.

Not just smile,

but laugh, have fun, let them forget about everything troubling them.

Just for them, for their personal benefit.

But, I guess you'd understand.

because even though I am alone,

your soul is captured by another that's name is not mine.

The least I could say is that my heart feels like it was filled to the brink with emotion,

and was abruptly popped once it realized it was all for nothing.

But it wasn't for "nothing" in fact,

even in my weakened state, I love the way you smile everyday because you are so incredibly happy.

I have to accept the fact that while my soul stays locked inside this pale chest,

she is the best thing to ever happen to you.

The way you look at her possesses something i've never seen in your eyes before,

not lust.

No.

But the powerful emotion of love,

 true undeniable love.

As this story comes to an end, I bawl my boney fists into their small positions at my sides.

Jealousy takes over, after all.

I am human.

As  teenager, how do I control these hormones and emotions?

Simple, you don't.

You know what the funny thing about love is though?

Even when your emotions fail you,

the thought of making the target of affection so happy that you believed they had feelings for you.

That you made them so unbelievably comfortable with you that they can act the way they've always wanted people to accept in front of you anytime.

Is priceless.

Turn that jealousy into pure spirit,

because you just made someone's life about 10,000 times better.

And that's the greatest love of them all.

I'm in love with you,

but you are right where you're supposed to be.

And you're going to be just fine.
