There's a guy that I find attractive
But isn't there always?
Well, I guess there are girls too
Every time I do something new
There's a person I find attractive there.
Like being in a play or at a summer camp
There's always someone
Like the guy who I messed up with
Mostly because my other friends didn't like him.
He was funny and kind
And he had a crush on me, and he told me
And he kissed me on the cheek and on the head
But I never told him I liked him
I couldn't think of the words to say it
And there was too much peer pressure.
And when the time came for us to never see each other again,
We couldn't find a way to keep in touch.
Like the first guy I took a picture of while he wasn't looking.
Yes, I've done that multiple times, but that's not the point.
He was the first person I ever romantically loved.
I knew him for a week in the summer,
He had adorable brown eyes that sparkled with joy
He was able to play so many instruments
Come up with lyrics and chords out of nowhere,
And he was nice, and his smile showed that
But he lives in Florida,
So I never saw him again.
Like the girl who taught me how to dance
For a scene in the opera we were in together
She kept to herself, but she was so creative and wonderful.
She wrote piano music, and I got lucky enough to hear her play once.
I kept getting distracted by her brilliant blue eyes and sharp eyeliner
As she counted the rhythm, trying to keep my movements on the beat
I think the person who taught us our songs shipped us.
The guy who I find attractive now is basically the same story
I'm in a musical, he's playing the lead, etc.
But I don't think I've ever seen a smile more adorable than his
And he's kind, and funny, and an amazing singer,
But he has a girlfriend.
Will I ever meet anyone in this way
Who I find attractive
That things will actually work out with?

PoetryI liked @cosmicchill 's idea for their colors book so I'm almost doing the same thing but it's not colors and some parts are more like a diary. Also the writing style is a little different. I feel all pretentious and shit whenever I work on this lol...
