The way I saw you every day
Only grew with admiration
Eyes filled with giant hearts
You are my strongest temptation

The way I caught your trailing scent
The second you walked by
Left me following aimlessly
Cartoon-like, nose held high

The way I caught your glance at lunch
Made the butterflies soar and glide
I looked away quickly,  cheeks all red
I'd never felt that shy

Over time my feelings built up
As about you I thought long and hard
Building up the courage finally
To attempt to steal your heart

At 3am that final night
I wrote a letter, pouring myself out
The destination would be your bag
Some reading material on your flight

For two whole days I awaited
What was to be a bitter-sweet sound
Yes you feel the same way about me
But your mother would never allow

We stayed in touch,  speaking everyday
Until one day it all just stopped
Not knowing why you no longer replied
To my messages, my heart felt lost

Today will be almost 3 months
Since I sent that last message to you
Why am I deserving of this?
What exactly did I do?

Even with the damage done
I am confident for our future ahead
Only two more years till I finish school
And our relationship can be made amends

Until then I remain positive
For that day when we'll reunite
Two halves seperated, together again
At the end of the tunnel, I hope there is light
