I never really noticed you that first day,
although I'm sure my eyes went past you.
But I remember clearly when I sat next to you.
You immediately asked me about that guy I was related to.
"He's my cousin."
"Our dads are brothers."
We share the same surname that's why you even bothered.
From then on we were friends.
You even share your math answers when it depends.
I felt happy when you're around.
Like the world around us holds no bounds.

Sooner the word friends didn't matter anymore.
Because I knew right then that I like you.
Why wouldn't I?
You were funny and kind and smart.
The feeling when I talk to you is like when you set off to space,
no gravity takes place.

But I told my heart to stop.
To not give in just too abrupt.
Because I know what lies in the future.
It's a perfect recipe for disaster.
Yet my heart betrays me.
