...an ode to someone i liked once

Spring is here, but I feel no joy.

I keep remembering that you’re in the hands of another boy

This isn’t a poem to reminisce or to cry,

Far from that it’s just my way of saying goodbye

I remember the first time I saw you,

Sitting in the church right next to the pew.

All dressed in white with a hint of pink,

That innocent look you gave me felt like I had too much to drink

It took me some courage, no doubt it did,

But after I spoke to you, you’re smile nearly blew me off my lid

Whenever we used to speak,

You would make my knees go weak.

I remember the times we had,

Times that I now miss so bad.

Remember the first time I held your hand?

The day was cold yet it was warm.

I remember my blood rushing to my face.

My heart beating twice it’s pace.

And when you came close to me,

Closed your eyes and pursed your lips,

Touching my face with you’re finger tips,

It was like being in ecstasy.

But I have gone too far,

I’ve let my emotions out of their jar.

I have no regrets of us being together,

Cause it changed my life forever.

I have a new reason to live,

To get back your love I’m willing to give,

Any sacrifice, even to stay alive through all my sadness.

Cause you are the light of my darkness.

Sweet pretty girl even if I don’t get you,

I want you to know.

I hope that your happiness will only grow.

And maybe when its time for me to sleep,

I’ll be happy for being once in love so deep.
