as you will learn as the poem goes on, i like to overthink things :) hbu?

---

you made me

laugh

today

a couple of times

and i know i said

i was

done

writing about us

but i thought

we

were done too

and i guess

we're not

or at least

that's what my

friends

say

but i think

they're

overthinking it

overthinking your

words

and

smiles

and how you

stayed up till

3:00 AM

to wish me a

happy new year

since you live

far away

anyways

you made me

laugh

you made me

smile

that's nothing

new

your words

always

bring a

smile

to my face

and i know you

said

we should just be

friends

but i don't

want to be

friends

with you

i want to be

more

than

that

i know it seems

weird

to you

or something

uncomfortable

what was the word

you used?

unexpected

but life is

unexpected

full of

twists

and

turns

do you think

i

expected it?

do you think

i

expected to

fall in love

with you?

i didn't

i just wanted

a friend

like you do now

but now

i'm not so

sure

that i can be

friends

with you

this poem

has no direction

much like our

relationship

which doesn't

exist

and my life

which i've just

about

lost all hope

for

i spend my

days

talking to you

and watching

the office

even though

netflix

got rid of it

you were the

one

who told me

so i couldn't even

be mad

about it

all i could

think about

was that

you

were still

talking to me

and i

never

wanted you to

stop

i like to

tease you

i think our

banter

is funny

i think we were

made

for each other

in some sense

i can see it

in my mind's eye

i can see

you

in my arms

you have no idea

how bad

i want that

no idea

anyhow

it's getting

late

though nowhere

near

3:00 AM

i hope that

someday

something

changes

and you

love me
