I love the fact that you called me
beautiful and wonderful
even though I was
wearing a
band
t-shirt
three sizes too
large and lint-covered
leggings that clung to my legs.

I hope that you realise I like you
so much it’s hard to express
and this is why I am
so awkward
and
giraffe-like
in your presence
and also I hope you realise
I will like you whatever you do.

Please just keep being you, I like
you so much, you run through
my brain at night (and
day), and you
are my
obsession, I
could study you for
years and become a scholar
who knows your every thought.

I hope you don’t feel like you have
to do anything, just because
you’re the guy and
I’m the girl;
I like
the way you
are kind of shy but
guess what I will ask you out
and we can learn and grow together.
