Feelings
god, i like you.
the way your hair falls in your face
and your pretty blue eyes
i shouldn’t be looking
and i don’t want to look,
but i do.
every time i walk out of class
i look for you.
straining my head around
because there’s a little rush in my stomach
each time i see you
for no apparent reason.
your smile, wide and joyful
i think you’re so cute
i can’t help but smile,
watching you across the room.
your silly little personality
goofy and crazy
and i love it.
you’re shy and quiet most of the time
but you can be weird
and i love that about you.
i love both kinds of you.
these feelings,
i don’t know how i got them.
it’s like i was walking into the wind,
and the wind sailed them into my heart,
my heart
that is slowly knitting them together.
knitting together your hair and your eyes and your smile and your silliness and your shyness and all of you
all into something
a beautiful feeling.
and i feel this feeling in my stomach
i feel it when i look back at you in the hallway
when i see your pretty smile across the room
when you’re acting silly
or when you mess up and you get shy
i have this feeling
and i don’t know if i want it to go away.
