crush vs. like
crush is just a cute word for lust. it's based on looks, and you can crush on someone once you've seen or met. really innocent and pretty safe.
like is when you've actually talked to them, and started developing feelings for them. you started to get to really know them, and you started liking them. not really safe, can fall in love.

it's safe to say
that i've long since passed the point of no return.
there's no denying this feeling.
it's not love,
not yet i don't believe.
but it's more powerful than just a crush.
i see your quirks
your faults
and i still think of you.
is it your virtues?
your mannerisms?
your looks?
why do i gloss over the bad
and see the good?
this feeling i have
it's more than a simple crush.
it's deep.
it's complex.
it's powerful.
is it love?
