I want him-
His imperfections.
His worst days.
His biggest fears.
I want to know him-
What he likes.
What he wants.
What he thinks.
I want to think-
That he likes me.
That he cares.
That he'll stay.
I want to go for it-
To take a chance.
To make something happen.
To make the first step.
I want to not be scared-
Of being told no.
Of what could happen.
Of us not being friends.
I want to know-
What it could be like.
What could happen.
What it would mean.
But I can't know-
Because he isn't mine.
Because we don't talk enough.
Because we are still strangers.
