Why Crushes ****

I want to catch your eye

I want to light up the room

I want to be the one you glance at

whenever you can

I want to be the girl you walk down the halls with

even though your class is at the opposite end of the school

I want to be the one who drinks coffee with you

at 1 am

just because we can

I want to be the one you explain the basketball games to

I want to hold your hand

as we walk through the freezing cold night

or maybe run

because we’re late

always late

I want to study with you

even though neither of us needs to

but just because its an excuse to hang out

any excuse will do

I want so much from you

so much I can't even put into words

its all just colorful swirls of longing

But mostly,

I want to say hi

and get a hi back
