I am.... am not

I am... in love

with you.

Not to be mean

or even dispositive,

but its not your looks

or anything on the outside.

Am not a silly schoolgirl

chasing you

around the playground

because

i don't really

want you to know the

truth.

I am... perfectly fine

just being friends.

because that means

i can make you smile

and when you smile

your eyes sparkle.

ANd your eyes,

dear friend,

are by far your best feature.

Am not afraid

of you.

just me

and my feelings.

because if i let myself

fall in love with you

it will be over.

i will never again

hear you laugh

just for me.

I am... happy

just to hear you talk

because you are so much

more than you realize.

so intelligent

and bright.

so funny

and kind.

Am not anything like you

never before have i

heard you say

ine rude thing

to anyone

even those you hate.

Can always smile,

never seem to be afraid.

I am... in love

with your soul.

your smile,

eyes,

personality,

YOU.

i am in love with you.

Am not going to tell you

because i'd rather just be friends.
