Crushes

They say that
crushes are called crushes
because they leave you crushed.
It sounds silly to me
'cause that's not what I see.

Crushing is, to me,
like a cup of coffee
it's effects are beneficial
as well as temporary.
Having a crush, to me,
is fun but also scary
like swinging high
on a tall swing
and feel refreshed
from the strong wind
but you get scared
at the same time,
cause you could fall
if you swing too high.

When you crush on someone
you're bound to change, it's true.
Cause you will try to be
the best version of you.

A nice change from all the dark poems, eh?

I know the coffee and swing examples are lame but whatever*shrugs*

PS. Pun intended on the "you could fall" part lol I'm an intellectual
