And in a matter of seconds, every stare, gesture, and word were perceived differently,
Since then, your presence gave me chills even from afar,
Your scent has a distinctive brand in my nostrils that I can easily recognize you,
And I long for your sweet nothings and even your mood swings.
The attraction towards you happened by chance,
Like the way we were incorporated in a class activity through a random selection,
And it's my choice to stay with you, to try to hang on with these feelings,
Even though in the end, I would have to endure the blisters, the tears, as well as the indescribable pain within that could blow up my chest,
Because liking you secretly and holding on to the friendship label are the only means to keep you.
