Because sometimes you meet
someone,
and you think
"Golly, they sure are swell".
And then I guess
you fall in love,
and maybe scrape a knee
or break an arm
or lose an eye.

Because sometimes you
fall really hard.
Like, from a ten-story building
sort of hard,
I mean.
You take that last little step over
the edge.
And then you're there.
Fawning over some person
that sure is swell.

In short,
I've fallen,
and I can't get up.
(Does this mean I need LifeAlert?)

Because when I see him
I sort of go,
"Oh. Hello there,
you're a fantastic
person."

Golly gee, you're swell.

He's silly,
he's thoughtful,
he's a lot of things
that make up this one
human being
that makes me
die a little every
time I see him.

A lot of things are
hopeless,
this one might be,
but how could I stop
loving him?
Regardless of the fact
that nothing may ever
happen between us,
I love him.
I want him to be happy.
I want to be friends
or something.
To talk and laugh
and maybe just
every once in a while
take a peek at his
ridiculously blue eyes.
(Seriously, who has eyes that blue?)

So it may be hopeless,
as some things are.
But, alas

I love you,
silly boy.
And I might love you
for as long as I can tell.

You make me very happy.
