Childhood Crush
#TheUnrequitedLove

My love wasn't at first sight,
But slowly I started to see you in a new light,
With each small moment that we had,
I searched for love with my eyes clad.

I knew you only saw me as a friend,
But my heart loved to pretend,
My poor heart! illusioned against reality,
Chose the wrong path and lost the sight of clarity.

Crazed with the idea of love,
Imagined love letters carried by doves,
I didn't realise how wrong I was,
Until I ended up becoming the school's farce.

Promised myself I would never confess,
But at the end it ended up becoming a mess,
The way you looked at me grew my hope,
And left me with wishes for better...
