CRUSH
I had never felt this before.
They said there would be butterflies,
There would be sparks.
They said my heart would beat so fast, it would burst out of my chest.
It was all there, or so i felt,
But now I know.
It was all an illusion,
All part of a wishful thinking.
He would look in my eyes,
Say the words I wanted to hear,
Hold my hand and pull me close.
He would call me his best friend,
And then let go.
I hadn't known any better.
Mistaken his friendship for more,
Read all the signs wrong.
I made a fool of myself,
But now I know.
So I will move forward, careful not afraid.
Yes my heart was broken,
But this is not the end.
He was not my Prince Charming,
But life is more than him.
This crush will die, life goes on.

Constructive criticism is appreciated, please keep in mind this is the first poem I have ever written and I literally wrote it in like 20 minutes.
