Why do I love you
When I see you, my heart skips a beat and I get warm. I have so many things I want to tell you, but they just won’t leave my throat. I wish I could talk to you, like how I talk to anybody else. I want to show you, how funny or kind I can be. I want you to like me. I want to stand there forever with you and just talk. But I can’t. When I look at you, your eyes shine brighter than the sky, I feel so overjoyed. I have no other way to express my feelings, but when I look in your direction, you simply just wave and go. I just smile. Everytime I see you. Even if im sad, in your present, I shall not show any sign of negativity. All my friends talk shit about you. Saying you’re cruel and toxic. Saying that you’re stupid and dumb. That you are just simply not my type. But oh how they misjudge you. You are so kind. When I see you talk to the younger children, I feel so warm. When you play the guitar I can’t stop but look at you. You are the nicest person I’ve ever known. But because of you I changed. I changed every bit of me, just for you to like me. I wanted to be your type. So I starved myself, I cut my hair, I let my hair grow, I change my sense of fashion taste, I change my song taste. But it’s alright. It’s fine. I stay up all night, just to make you a gift. I might not have a lot of money, but I would spend my last penny on you. I made you handmade gifts too. And you. You have no interest in me. So why. Why do I love you; well its easy. I love everything about you. I love how your get some sort of cute eyering when you smile or laugh, how you like cola zero more than cola original, or how you play flag football. I love when you play the guitar or play with the drums. I love it how you have some sort of tic. I love it when you sit beside me every Monday. Even when your best friend is far away from you. I loved it when you gave me that drawing. Even if it only took 5 minutes.
I love you.
