Is it wrong that I can't stop thinking of you?

Is it strange that I know everything about you?

Is it queer that I adore all your so-called flaws?

Is it odd that I want you this badly?

Is it weird that I need you so much?

Is it perplexing that I desire you so intensely?

Is it peculiar that I miss you this terribly?

Is it bizarre that I care for you so strongly?

Is it freaky that I love you?

Is it really all that unusual?

Well...is it?

Well - to each his own. Haha.

Sorry I am not the biggest twilight fan. Read the books saw the movies and just it doesn't light that inferno with me.

But I wrote this about a best friend I had feelings for and he thought I was weird for remembering like everything he ever told me. And then he read this and still didn't get it. Haha. Just my luck.

Thanks! That's what I aim for when I write. Emotion is a blessing and a curse.

&quot;I&#039;d rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I&#039;m not&quot; <br /> &quot;Somewhere betweeen us talking, you saying I deserve better, and you making me laugh when I wanted to cry, I fell in love with you.&quot;
