Crush

Written July 5, 2006
Love was better,
but I don’t need it right now.
Would it complicate things,
or maybe I’m scared.
Can I be special in your eyes?
Just for a little while…
enough to quell my loneliness.
Accompany me, for now.
Sorry I missed your high fives.
I’m not a total fool.
We’re all the same, in truth,
but I see something more in you.
