____________________________

it wasn't the easiest

when i first admitted

i liked you.

i had to make sure

you might like me back.

i couldn't.

you were sweet, you were so kind towards me.

but never the closest.

you had those thick walls

around yourself

i'm so willing to break.

no matter how hard i try

even though you were always standing there

i could just look at you.

i could just speak with you about the weather, subjects and things.

never about love.

you knew i cannot see colors

but you never asked why.

you never asked how it felt like.

you never asked if i was okay.

but i waited,

still do i,

to open up to me someday.

the day that you'll say

"i like you, too caleb."

that's why

i even smiled after you stormed out

because of my confession.
