Why

To you,

my only thought is this...

why?



Why is it you that I have fallen in love with,

the my mind always turns to,

that makes my heart skip a beat and tears fill my eyes

when I see you walking all alone?



I ask myself,

why you?

Why not some other guy?



And I come up with ninety-nine reasons why I shouldn't care,

then I come up with one hundred reasons why I do.



Why do I feel this way about you?



Especially when you have never looked

past my smile,

never tried to see beyond

the friend in me,

to see the love that I have for you

in my heart and in my eyes.



Why is it that only I have these feelings?



These fear,

these thoughts,

these tears?



Why must I be the only one?
