We got each other's numbers.
We talked a lot.
You still came around with your friends.
But you would also come on your own.
Just to talk to me.

It made me think you cared for me.
We became friends.
Yet it still didn't feel enough.
But it should be enough.
I couldn't have more.
It would be a bad idea.
