I can't understand what happened,
   but for some reason, your eyes are
   more blue than they normally were.

   Your cheeks stand out more,
   with a developed cheek and,
   jaw line is more define than usual.

   It's weird to think that a year ago,
   we barely even spoke and you were
   just there to me, just existing to me.

   But now your something so much more,
   and I can't shake this feeling that maybe,
   I've set myself up for a loss and I'm nothing.

   Because, I wouldn't except to be anything to you,
   because I'm barely anything to myself so much that,
   I hardly look in a mirror the fear of my own flaws.

   So what does that say about me as a human?
   willing to do think of you as something so,
   amazing, so talented, so utterly out of this world.

   So I'll admire you from afar, because I already know,
   if I admire you up close I'm heading towards an early grave,
   with my mortician sighing and writing down "shattered heart."
