First Crush

we have these common interests

Of books, movies, and art

but we live so far away

we're bound to be apart

I really really like you

I hope you like me too

It's hard for me to feel this way

I haven't got a clue

I'm not quite sure how you feel

I'm too afraid to ask

I must make sure that you're the one

Or if it's just a mask

you listen to me carefully

as I express my thoughts

you mean so much I can't explain

I like you lots and lots

expressing this emotion

has always been quite hard

so thank you for the reason

to feel a lot less scarred

you'll never see this poem

but that's okay with me

as long as we can still be friends

I'll set these feelings free
