Honest Flirting: love in disguise

A boy and a girl, a tale so old,
Their story has been often told.
He flirts with her, or so they say,
But in his heart, it's love that does play.

They say he's just a player, a flirt,
But his emotions, they seem to skirt.
They can't see what's inside his heart,
And they tear his love story apart.

He looks into her eyes so bright,
And all his fears take flight.
His heart beats like a drum,
As he tries to tell her that she's the one.

But they all call it flirting,
And his heart, it keeps hurting.
He's just trying to show her,
That his love for her is pure.

So let them call it what they will,
For his heart, it never will chill.
He'll keep showing her his love,
With every smile.

For though they call it flirting,
In his heart, he knows the truth is lurking.
His love for her is real,
And it's a feeling that he cannot conceal.

He wishes they could see inside,
And understand the love he tries to hide.
It's not a game or a simple flirt,
But a love that runs deep and cannot be hurt.

He wants to shout it from the rooftops,
That she's the one who holds his heart nonstop.
But they keep calling it flirting,
And his heart, it keeps hurting.

He wishes they could feel what he feels,
And see that his love for her is the real deal.
It's not just a momentary attraction,
But a deep and lasting connection.

So he'll keep showing her his love,
And hope one day they'll see it from above.
That what they call flirting is just a disguise,
For a love that's pure and cannot be denied.

He knows that he can't change their minds,
Or convince them that his heart is kind.
But he'll keep trying, day by day,
To show his love in every way.

For in his heart he knows the truth,
That his love for her is the proof,
That what they call flirting is just a name,
For a love that burns like an eternal flame.

So let them talk and let them jest,
For he knows that in his heart he's blessed.
To have found a love so true,
And to have his heart beating just for her is true.

And though they call it flirting,
In his heart, he knows there's no mistaking.
That what he feels for her is real,
And it's a love that only she can steal. 

For he knows that in this love story,
He's the only one who feels the glory.
For she may not know or understand,
The depth of his love, so grand.

He loves her from afar,
And wishes on every shooting star,
That one day she'll see and feel the same,
And his love for her won't be in vain.

But for now, he'll keep his love a secret,
And treasure every moment he can keep it.
For even though it's a one-sided love,
He knows that it's a blessing from above.

For to love someone so deeply,
Is a feeling that cannot be taken cheaply.
And though it hurts him to know,
That she may never love him so.

He'll keep his love alive,
And pray that one day she'll arrive,
At a place where she can see,
The love he's kept for her so faithfully.
