When You Really Like Someone, but You don't Know How to Tell Them...

When You Really Like Someone, but You don't Know How to Tell Them...

You're like fancy organic fish food,

I'd pay $40 for you anyday to avoid fish cannibalism.

You're lactose in milk and I fear I'm intolerant...

intolerant because I can't speak in front of you

When you asked for my highlighter, it's like you asked for my soul

And I hesitantly gave it to you.

Like an indiscreet sunset--you--make--me--glow.

Bring the highlights in my hair out

Make me listen to Whitney Houston while sipping creamy jasmine tea.

All the bullshit I've never seen me doing,

I see now with the glare of your sunset making love to my eyes.

Oh God, did I really say that?

I know we are soulmates and you feel the intangible tension too.

Thanks for having the most perfectest smile and laugh,

How'd you know those were my fav qualities in a person?

You knew cuz I know that you know that we belong

Like we're supposed to sit next to each other in class

But you sit in the seat directly behind me.

The glare of your sunset taunts me from behind,

I wish to muster up enough courage to stare into the sun one day.
