It's a pathetic kind of love, to be infatuated with someone so far away from the world that you're in. My heart swells between the cracks of my ribcage, aching for you. These feelings I have, they crave fulfillment, an escape from my solemn mind. I guess I just didn't know how else to give them that. ✩★ I'm a coward, I know. I don't expect you or anyone else to try and hide that. Maybe I'm naive, too, to think you might actually bear any sliver of endearment for me. You'd have to acknowledge my existence for that. Those moments that I kick my pencil to the ground, and roll it to you with the heel of my foot… you pick it up and, for just a moment, our eyes meet. That's enough, I'd think to myself. That's enough for you to haunt my dreams for the rest of my life. “ 𝓶𝓪𝓭𝓮 𝓾 𝓽𝔀𝓸 𝓬𝓪𝓼𝓼𝓮𝓽𝓽𝓮𝓼, 𝓷𝓸𝔀 𝓲 𝔀𝓲𝓼𝓱, 𝓾 𝔀𝓮𝓻𝓮 𝓯𝓬𝓴𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓭𝓮𝓪𝓭 !!! ” Lately, I've been staying for ten minutes after the final bell rings, silently listening to the footsteps in the hall, until they fade away with the voices. Folded papers that I slip into your locker, the corners bleeding with ink. Poetry— or the closest thing to it. It's more like a written embodiment of my love for you, messy and entangled like bones and flesh, yet somehow harmonizing together. I watch from afar, hiding in the crowd, as your eyes drift over the words I etched into it. I don't think you've told anyone. I don't know how I would live with myself if anyone knew. Especially not him. ” ..𝓫𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴 𝓾𝓹 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱 𝔂𝓻 𝓫𝓯, 𝓽𝓪𝓴𝓮 𝓪 𝓻𝓲𝓭𝓮 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱 𝓶𝓮 “ He's your boyfriend, after all. But every time he walks by… your hand intertwined with his… I think I just want to be him, not someone who lurks in his shadow. I'd sacrifice anything just for you to notice me instead. ✩★ 𝓔𝔁𝓽𝓻𝓪 ; 6’3”, 18, local emo. 💔
