falling feels like flying

until the moment that you land

living feels like dying

until someone takes your hand

a silly little crush feels like you’re in love

until you get hurt

then, a silly little crush feels like the end

like you’ll get hurt again

like it just won’t work

like you’re not enough

like you don’t even know each other that well

it’s only a crush

you only like him a tiny bit

just a tiny little bit

until you hear his laugh

and see his face

and notice his shiny blue eyes

oh my, they’re gorgeous-

and then you fall into them

like diving into the ocean

that you know

will make you

drown.
