You wouldn’t know someone’s heart until you hear their heartbeat right next to you or in some cases, you feel it in your hands.

I know I turn out cold whenever you’re around but it’s just my way of liking you
I didn’t want you to know to be able to like you freely
I want to be a bird, free to fly and admire you in any way possible sometimes I think of flying away from you but my mind and heart just can’t fly away because the more that I do the more I adore you.

Every time I look at you it feels dangerous it felt like a sin even staring at you.

But I know how wicked you could be with those eyes of malice I just knew you were the second imbecile I will like. I knew how dangerous this will be, liking people your age will turn me into a monster.

Every time I look at you and see you glance back I just want to tell you that
I'm not stupid
Every time you try to hold my hands in simple chances I want to tell you that
I'm not stupid
Or when the very first time that I knew you knew I wanted to tell you that
I'm not stupid.

I always want to experience different kinds of love but I'm not a fool to not see what genuine love is and what isn't. For I know that real love will be as clear as glass or as shimmering as the running water by the river that continues to flow and glisten in clear bright water in broad daylight.

Love will always be clear no matter how dim the night will be, because the river of love is meant to glisten day or night, rain or shine, and If it's mine I ought to know.

I haven't told anyone but I knew you already knew that once again I'm a fool of love.

I knew that nothing good will come out of this but I love how I feel, I love how my heart skips a beat racing away from your gaze, and how I hide away from you whenever you are near like a snail in its shell not ready to go out to the world.

I love hiding from love and I love running away because that's what I'm best at. Always ran away from love, left my friends to be alone, and cried myself at night to gloom my self-made miseries
