Ever felt fireworks exploding

all over your stomach?

That damned flush spreading

all across your face?

It seems to claim you,

there is none to spare

Leaving nothing but a bumbling

stuttering fool in its wake


But this couldn't be more

farther than the truth.

I have never felt fireworks

or butterflies in my stomach.

It isn't a damn virus

that seems take hold of you

No these are dramatizations of

something so simple, so genuine


What it really feels like

is something you can't describe.

You can only feel its warmth

as it settles in your heart

It is fresh, it is new

and oh so exhilarating

Yet it is something that catches on,

refusing to leave your thoughts


It sticks to you like a leech

It invades your mind at odd times

You keep replaying those insignificant

yet oh so significant moments

It sounds rather irritating and

just a bit too much doesn't it?

Oh trust me, it is...but I've come

to realize that maybe, it isn't so bad


Yes I find myself thinking about

his eyes, his glasses, his smile

way more often than I should.

His sarcastic quips make me

smile like a retard and his adorable

rambles seem to make my day.

But what if it was bound to

happen at some point or other?


My feelings aren't something

I'd like to harbor on my sleeve.

But denial can only go so far

before it is so blatantly obvious.

I can't help these emotions

no matter how hard I try.

Yes, it's new and kinda scary, but

I wouldn't change it for the world

If anyone's wondering (I'm pretty sure no one's curious about my love-lack of-love life), the guy I wrote this poem for is my friend now. 

And I finally told him my feelings a year after a writing this...after I'd pretty much gotten over my crush. Turns out, he never liked me that way. So yeah, I got friendzoned XD. But we're fine and we still talk...in fact, I think it made things less awkward between us. 

But yeah, this is anti climatic lmao.
