I've seen you, Held you, Hugged you. It's a bad habit of mine, But I chose you. I gave you gifts even if you didn't want to. I made you smile on days painted in shades of blue. Loving you feels wrong, Like a passionate, off-note song. You bring me joy despite the sorrow; I'll cherish this moment—every second I borrow. Loving you from afar is my heart's content, But most days, the chance of us I lament. I distance my emotions from this complicated chemistry; I enjoy the hugs—for me, it's victory.

Platonic Devotion
I've seen you, Held you, Hugged you. It's a bad habit of mine, But I chose you. I gave you gifts even if you didn't want to. I made you smile on days painted in shades of blue. Loving you feels wrong, Like a passionate, off-note song. You bring me joy despite the sorrow; I'll cherish this moment—every second I borrow. Loving you from afar is my heart's content, But most days, the chance of us I lament. I distance my emotions from this complicated chemistry; I enjoy the hugs—for me, it's victory.
I wish I could take such risk to admit someone I love them, but everything is stale for me; well for love that is. I can't find myself losing friendship over my feelings for them. The loss of closure will leave me empty.
