it started out small
scrawling silly jokes here and there
fair, i want to get chummy
funny, i just want to be around you
i start looking forward to days we work together
"i can't wait to see [you], [you] make work so much better"
you get sick one day
hey, i feel disappointed and sad - why?
my high happy mood drops as i realize i won't get to see you today
decaying is what i feel in my stomach
so i find your number in the work app
snap, just like that we're talking every moment i can get
i start to want to make you smile
i want you to playfully nudge me
touch my hands
i love your eyes
eyes usually terrify me, but yours are so sweet
meet my gaze, return my touch, please notice me in every mundane moment
i need to prevent scaring you off at all costs
don't lie don't lie don't lie
i want you to like me for who i am
but i don't want it to be an infatuated fling
it stings, i want to be special
but you want to leave in a year
i understand, i want to too
but i guess now i just want it to be with you
