leisure, lifestyle & love
For you I’d run a mile
Just to see your smile
For years knew that I like you
Did you notice all that I did for you?
Now we’re miles apart
Just wanna be in your heart
I still feel butterflies
Whenever we randomly chat
Sitting here all alone
Wide awake & it’s now dawn
Allow me to open your door
Cause I really want to be yours
>This is for the guy who will always see me as a friend & that time when we were close friends he still likes her, so let him go.
I can still remember when and where I met you. It was in our school canteen. His sense of humor was one of a kind. I was a shy girl and you would joke around while walking through the corridor. We became close without me noticing it until friends of mine making jokes about me having a boyfriend, I was in an all girls class back then. You being at the honor’s class and me, with my grades barely hanging would always cheer me up and motivate me to do better next time. Dismissal time was kind of our time waiting for our parents to fetch us up, we’d do crazy things kids do. In high school, I remembered, we had a petty fight over something I couldn’t remember. We didn’t speak for weeks but ended up having our families together on a summer day, had so much fun and forgot about our fight. I started to like him and my feeling grew even more though we we’re in different college and barely see each other. On Valentine’s day, I asked you out for a date and confessed that I liked you but you said that you can’t reciprocate your feelings. I was being a nice girl, had my heart broken and very first time I cried for a man. A year has passed, I learned from a friend who was his co-intern that he’s gay. It all made sense, he never did date a girl and recently told me he would never have a girlfriend. It was okay with me even though we never talk about it, although I’m pushing hints on our conversation. Before I left the Philippines, you were there because our families really close. Today, I’m happy to be friends with you and make wonderful memories as we go through our adulthood.
I met him in middle school
Funny, intelligent & a nice guy
Always supportive and cared for me.
One day in high school,
We had a petty fight
We didn’t talk for a week or so
Spent one summer day together
and forgot what happened
His personality was one of a kind
I liked him since then
My feelings grew even more.
We’ve been friends for 6 years,
Invited him for lunch on valentine’s day
Told him I liked him
and friend zoned me right away.
We faced adulthood and had different paths
Had rumors that he’s gay
Never confirmed it from him
I was cool with it
Made sense he never dated
Would lend a hand if he needed me
Now,
Our friendship still the same
It seems like no years have gone by
still that sweet, silly old friend I will always cherish.
