I'd tell you that I'm falling, but you'd take it like a joke.
I'd hold your hand forever, and I'll squeeze it until it's broke.
I'd fall for you over and over every day....
but I'm too scared that I'd be replaced.
I could watch you smile for years, and it'd never lose it's charm.
I would hold you as close as possible so I can protect you from harm.
I'd make infinite sandwiches, and I'd bottle up the scent.
Of course, none of this can happen because I feel like a disappointment.
The girls you like are pretty, while all I have is smarts.
They all want flowers and chocolate while I want is spare time and sweet tarts.
Those girls are paper thin, while I'm far far from it.
I fell like I'm at the bottom of the ocean while you're standing on the summit.
I'd want to be your everything. I want all of your attention,
but if I won any awards, all I'd get is honorable mention.
Instead of singing harmonies, I'm stuck singing laments
because when I think of love, I feel like a disappointment.
I try to be so happy and to be at least okay.
Except I get more lonely with each and every day.
You're already my best friend, and I feel selfish for wanting more.
I'm looking for something genuine, not a guy to score.
I know this is a bit depressing- I don't post stuff like this all the time.
I'd be at my happiest if you'd let me call you mine.
I used to feel so wonderful, but I'm slowly feeling less confident.
Instead of being yours, I'm just a disappointment.

I seriously need to quit being so emotional about this stuff, but this dude always has me in my feels. I'm sure he likes someone else, but I can't get over him. I'm sure he doesn't like me at all.... I'm sure I'll get over it eventually.
