classic love poem

"

You are cancer

You make me feel like im walking on water

When i think of you it's like a movie filled with endless romance

Ur smile

Our commonness with ethnicity

The way polish slang slips from your tongue

The way you slowly crack a smile

And youre drive for success

Your calmness when needed

And your wild side

You are cancer

One i've never met

I see your name everywhere

For as common as it is

You are different

An idea

The thoughts and stories in my head through music

Glad

Passionate

About you

I don't know if its true

But the way i see it you like me too

Friends can only be friends for so long before you realize it may be too late

You may miss your chance

Last time i felt this way

I was too late

But what if i embarrass myself

What If im shut down

And i lose you to the elephant in the room

Awkwardness

How to act

How to feel

And how to surrender every single romantic thought i had of you

That giggle

That humor

I felt comfortable

But nervous

No matter how

When

Where

Why

We found each other

Biking to me at 3am

The world was spinning

Figuratively and physically

But not enough for me to forget

Cold and windy

I took in the moment

And dispersed my energy

All at you

My focus

On you

We are friends

I've never had this good of a friend

You are cancer

Hinting

Flirting with my eyes

The beautification of the situation marveled at our feet

Waiting for the right moment

For the right word

The stare

Losing myself in your ambiguous eyes

Lost in the moment is when our lips will meet

And i'm swept off my feet

Swaying in your arms

I saw my world

My whole world

Everywhere i've gone

You’re there

You’re in my mind

Running across the globe

Traveling to new amsterdam

The one place i've always wanted to go

Even going to parties with you

I feel like i have walked a million miles

Experienced things and feelings i haven't

Time feels endless when i'm with you

High off each others smiles and laughter

We finally cool down

I'm interrupted

But i'm not lost in your vision

No matter who says what

I won't let them kick me out

Im here

And that's what matters

I won't go

And the more i stay the more i care

You've grown on me in ways i didnt know someone could

When i look at you i see a galaxy

An aroma of pink and white glitter

You make me see in color

You make me feel like i have a purpose

And that purpose does not come to an end

Positive outcomes only

All i want is you.

I want to be infected with cancer.

You are the cancer.
