I admired you from afar,

as you shone so bright like a star

in a crowded room

and I watched you bloom,

into the girl you wished to be.

You took up the shape of the key

to my heart, believing that nothing

could keep us apart.

I showed you the poems I wrote,

without knowing they were all

meant for you.

You were the glue that

kept my heart whole.

And whenever I was sad,

you were always there to console

I tried so hard to avoid,

those eyes that were

as dark as coal.

And those fingers that fits so well

against my own

I wish I could make my feelings known,

as I can't bare to see you

look at me as an ally.

For my feelings are anything,

but platonic.

- unrequited love
