You annoy me.
Yes, yes it’s true.
You frustrate me
By the things you do.
I like you.
Is that so hard to believe!
You are just stupid
And perhaps I’m naïve.
Why do I like you?
Don’t ask me!
I have no clue
To this mystery.
And the fact that you know
Makes it so hard on me
Ok. Maybe to some degree
It’s just a crush
But hoping, and dreaming
Aren’t really that much!
And sometimes, to me
They are really a crutch.
For not knowing
Who I am meant to be.
And there, my friends, is the key.
The key to the reason
we do silly things.
Like laughing a smiling
To that crazy degree
So, thank you to the crushes
You make us see
The true woman inside
We were meant to be.

To the person who got on my nerves so much that these words flowed out: No, this is not to you. It's to the fact that I feel for you. You had nothing to do with it.

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
