I find myself
Smiling
Every time I
Hear from you
I don’t deserve
Happiness
In my point
Of view
Yet you
Seem to give me
A reason
To smile
You
Are the reason
My day
Is worth while
Some people
May see you
As only a
Loner boy
Someone who
Hides himself
And may come
Off coy
You see
Yourself as
Grotesque and
Alone
A person
Who doesn’t deserve
Any kindness
To keep and to own
You see
Someone who is
Unattractive and
Disgusting
An unemotional
Person who
Desperately
Needs adjusting
Yet to me
You are
Perfect
In every single way
From your smile
To your laugh
To the way
You say “It’s okay”
From how you
Know when
Something is
Bothering me
From how you
Love your
Arizona Green
Tea
From the way
You’re modest
Considerate and
Kind
To the way
You’re criticized
Yet you don’t
Seem to mind
I love you,
I love you
I wish
I could say
But I can’t
In fear
My feelings would
Be thrown away
I love you
More than
You will ever
Know
However my love
Is something
I must never
Show
For you to
Be happy
I will
Shove it aside
My love
And feelings
Must be
Denied
When you
Call me
Just a
“Good friend”
I know
You truly
Don’t mean
To offend
Yet I will still cry
Alone
Where you
Cannot see
So that you
Do not feel bad
And start to
Pity me
You don’t
Love me
I know this
To be true
Yet even
With that knowledge
I will, always, always
Be there for you
