Just a crush I didn't fight for

Never knew, never will.

Never noticed even me.

I went around, lost in my thoughts

of that cute boy for whom I never fought.

Used to fall, when I saw him asleep

in my dreams imagining fireworks beam.

Run around, fall down hard

thinking of my luck if I saw him in the park.

Finding a way around so my friends don't laugh

at my stupidness when I talk,

or when I again fall into the pot.

My skin is dark, my heart is light

with the mark of a name

that just can't be erased.

When I saw you with her

my heart clenched, my sight blurred.

I kept awake, and faked a smile

while it was backwards, at the time.

Felt nothing at all, from that day and on.

I realised something, I wasn't in love.

I didn't love you like I really thought.

Never hurt me, broke my heart,

never passed more than a small crush.

I'm not a toy with which you can play.

If I really was, then I'd be the coolest game.

But I'm not, I'm a living being,

Independent and strong

beautiful and more.

You will not mesmerize me, no more feelings

when I pass you by and you greet me "Hi"

No more trying to get even, cause now I have a meaning

to the tingles in my tummy, since I am not your dummy.
