Him

My heart's never done the flippy thing before
I thought that was only a myth
I never thought it'd ever happen to me,
But maybe it's because of him

When I look at him
I forget where I am, if only for a second,
And he'll catch my eye,
Sometimes only to smile,
Sometimes to tell me a daft joke,
But every time I'm left wanting more.

Wanting to feel his touch again,
Wanting to hear his voice at night,
Wanting to be there when he's sad

But I know there will always be someone else.

I know I'll never be his first choice, but that's okay.

Though it hurts to think about, I'll always be his friend. And if that's all we will ever be, that's okay too.

Because nothing makes me happier than just hearing him laugh.

Nothing makes me happier than just seeing him smile.

Nothing makes me happier than just seeing him.
